Dad has come to stay for a couple of days. This afternoon, we popped out for a short walk across our local heath inbetween showers, and as we were walking I looked up and noticed these beautiful tall birches swaying in the breeze. They moved quite slowly but quite majestically - reminded me a bit of the way that elephants move, actually.

After dinner, we watched Station Agent - very good film, well worth watching if you haven't managed to catch it.
