Are You Looking at Me?

I See You
I’m not sure what this dog was looking at, but he maintained this pose long enough for me to get out my camera, get it on and focused and take a few shots. He was very still and focused.

Palace Pier Murmuration
The last time we shot from the Palace Pier and thought we’d be closer at the Doughnut (Afloat). This time we shot from the Doughnut and wondered if we wouldn’t have been better at the Palace Pier. Or, perhaps, the best view was had by the swimmers in the frigid waters.
Still more murmuration

More Murmuration
In mid-February we went back to the Doughnut Groyne, between the Palace and West Piers to see the murmuration of the starlings again. This time they were rather further away from our vantage point but we still managed to capture something.

Murmurings
The murmuration had not begun but the starlings were gathering (as were the gulls).
Wintery, Watery West Pier
Walking home on a wintery afternoon we came to West Pier in a dusky light and stopped to see the starlings gather for their daily murmuration.
Brighton, Dusk
The last of the dusk’s murmuration before the starlings all dove beneath the pier to roost.
More Murmuration
Murmuration
A must see in Brighton is the starling murmurations, occurring at dusk between about November and February. We photographed them in mid-December (and may go back this month as their numbers increase with incoming Scandinavian birds).

Descending to Rottingdean
“Rottingdean is a village in the city Brighton and Hove, on the south coast of England. It borders the villages Saltdean, Ovingdean and Woodingdean, and has a historic centre, often the subject of picture postcards.” Some of its more renowned residents include Rudyard Kipling, Enid Bagnold, and Edward Burne-Jones.
Till the Cows Come Home
Still more from our walk from Falmer to Rottingdean. Beginning to get used to walking through a field of cows.
