In the drizzle

I went for three short walks.

1. Through the local park -  saw a Dipper but just one so hopefully the other is on a nest.

2. M&S for urgent lack of bread -  talked to the Big Issue seller and bought the magazine. She wonders how many people actually read any of it but I said I always find something of interest this week it was about Morecambe "The seaside they refused to close down" and the hopes for the Eden Project North.

3. Was a bad decision as it was so wet but I walked a bit of the Longdendale Trail in two directions from Torside - a good test for a waterproof jacket -  I did see a Male Stonechat though and took this strange photo - perculiar light.
