A greedy 3 first looking across the lake about 04.30 UK time

Next a fisherman, he was winching the large sort of cage net aboard when I first saw him and I could see the fish flapping inside. Like a wally I just stood there watching then I thought I should take a photo. By the time had put some knickers on and got the camera the real action was over. I should have just grabbed the camera and taken a chance.

The next shot was taken as he motored away, I took it because I was amazed to see the bird standing at the bows!

I am camped at the edge of Lac Leman, La Tour-de-Peilz, Montreux, CH. The large rock in the first picture is Pic de Memise.

I hope your days will be a good as mine! Clive

My daughter's contribution to the artwork for the week outside the hippy centre.

@SueTayBon

I struggle with this modern art thingy but this looks lovely when it lights up in the dark and the pottery figure of Mother Hope in the centre of a world struggling.

Today we called at the creamery that makes cheese named after the dale. Lunch was posh cheese on toast followed by cheesecake. It just had to be done

Le Tréport last night and this morning...
And looks like I caught a humming moth flying past in the sky...

Coypu on the Ile d'Oleron while we were having breakfast. A native of South America they escaped (plus deliberate releases) originally from fur farms and are now naturalised. They can do a lot of damage to waterways with their burrows. In size about the same as a youngish rabbit. Called a Ragondin in France.

That's a useful idea, thank you. They eat Guinea Pigs in South America so presumably....... I must fire up the BBQ......

Pâte sounds nice but a bit fiddly to make in the MH as we didn't bring a food processor with us. Ragu of Ragondin has a Ring to it.

My DIL went to Peru and couldn't bring herself to try guinea pig but she did have guinea pig nuggets

At Ulvik on Osalfjorden in Norway this afternoon, the weather is a bit grey and wet but it is still a very nice spot.

 

[Just smiffy]
