a bird

We went to Candie Park for coffee and gache, and to wait for the aunts to pick us up - we'd had to check out of apartment by 10. While my daughter was upping her levels of nicotine, I heard this bird singing away. If a bird has a red breast I think of robins, but this seemed a bit too fluffy and its beak a bit longer than I think of for a robin.

The aunt who lives on Guernsey took us round some posh estate to a cliff top view, and then to the military cemetery, half of which is laid out in a very orderly fashion with simple headstones and is the German half. There is an earlier governor of the island who died while in post and his widow with a much more ornate grave.

And on to a very nice lunch before heading back to pick up our bags and wait for the transport to the airport.
