The Optimist...

Back at Hampton Court again today - this time with a card in the camera!

In a change to my usual modus operandi I started by heading for the Tiltyard café for a little refreshment, where this charming but rather bold wood pigeon decided to take the seat opposite me.

He then proceeded to look at me reproachfully as I demolished a slice of really excellent chocolate fudge cake. Clearly he didn't know me very well, or he'd have realised that there are some things that I'm simply not prepared to share!
