For those who were confused, the photos appearing while I was in Devon were not, in fact, taken while I was there. I had set them up to appear at regular intervals in my absence, so as to have some kind of new content appearing on the site. These are the first images from Devon that I have posted on this page:
This is the main area of the converted barn in which we were staying. I was the only group member to sleep in the smaller, quieter, and much colder ‘annex.’ We visited the main house once, for dinner.
This OS map shows the countryside surrounding the Edge Barton estate, where we were staying. On our first full day in Devon, we walked down the valley to the coastline.
The path down to Branscombe was a muddy one.
Here is the south coast of England. If this picture had been taken in the opposite direction, a large grounded ship could be seen.
Pheasants are pretty fearless animals. The camera was about a foot away when I took this.
One of your images, with attribution, is on this page
Pheasants certainly won’t win any prizes for intelligence of grace in movement.
