Cloud Watching

Went to the Rusty Bump again a few weeks ago, and finally decided to put these pictures up on here. I wanted to go in the evening time to increase my chances of seeing any foxes or barn owls that were about; unfortunately the only mammal I saw was a rabbit, and the only birds were swifts and swallows. However, I did manage to lie back in the grass and take these pictures:




I thought the clouds looked interesting and beautiful. It was so peaceful just laying there, listening to the birds squabbling overhead as they caught insects in the air.

Here is a photo of the shadows lengthening as the day draws to a close:



And a couple of the sun glowing dimly through the clouds as it sets.




The beauty of this is, this is the kind of nature you get even in the heart of a city centre. You don't have to go looking for it, but many people take it for granted. Open up your eyes to the beauties in the skies above you, and reconnect with nature. You won't regret it :)
