See just where you end up!

Perceptions
You don’t have to look your best all of the time.
Take a step back from how you think others perceive you.
Be yourself. Nobody should want anything else.
Robin
Take comfort in those that are no longer with you.
They are there in spirit, if not in body.
You are looked after.
Contrast
Push your comfort zone.
Find how far your limits can stretch.
By extending yourself, you can encounter new opportunities and expand what you thought you could achieve.
Reflect
Set your self one goal, one thing to aim for.
As you reach the end of the month, reflect on how well you achieved the resolutions you set yourself at the end of last year.
Did you succeed? How can you keep that momentum into the new month?
The longest of journeys begins with one small step, so don’t feel disappointed with yourself if you fell off whatever waggon you set yourself on on New Year’s Day.
Try again, knowing that you can do what you set your mind to.
Energy
Be energetic.
It is all to easy, in current times, to fall back on lethargy and apathy, but these will get you nowhere.
Be focused on your physical fitness, and your mental wellbeing will follow.
Observation
Viewing a situation from a different perspective is sometimes the only way to see the way forward.
Reaching out for a new viewpoint, you can identify the solutions to problems and the route you should take.
Soar like an eagle, and get the bird’s eye view that you need.
Flight
Sometimes others will challenge you to reach the goal you’re aiming for.
They won’t necessarily get there before you, so go for it.
You have as much right to the success as they do.
The Grey-Headed watcher
The clouds were gathering; a storm was approaching.
Taranis knew the time was near.
Before the heavens opened, before the winds whipped across the desolate moorland, before he summoned the thunder around him, he needed to gather his kin together, to keep the brethren close.
But first, food. He would require energy in the hours and days to come…

Animals of Somerset
With the lockdown ongoing (at time of writing), there is a definite need to get out and about for the regulation one-a-day constitutional, and on these trips out, you can encounter endless wildlife.
One of my recent discoveries was the Shapwick Heath Nature Reserve – on deserted mornings, all you can hear is the wildlife around you, various birds chirruping and tweeting, interspersed with the occasional booming of the nesting bitterns.
The photos below are not limited to Shapwick Heath, but it provides the inspiration for the set of images.
