A photo of the day thread

Just moved down from Rome to Naples for a couple of days (work.... not play)

With a crick in the neck through my room window, managed to get this picture of Vesuvius. Delicious mozzarella and tomato lunch....

Sat here in the hotel bar relaxing after a hard day of client meetings and spotted this behind the bar. I really, really don’t fancy drinking it..........

It's opposite the car park (at the entrance to the country park). It looks like a row of cottages

I can see a Little Egret I think. Anything else of interest? Too early for most migrants I guess. :)

Half a dozen Penduline Tits yesterday and an Osprey with a fish in its talons also several Purple Gallinule.
