I'm also on Instagram!

We didn't find any dragons #OTD in 2019, but we did find some sheep under a tree!!⠀
Brings back very happy memories of a stroll in Tavira on this momentous day in 2019. I wonder what I will be doing this year to celebrate?!⠀
Something artistic for today, plus after the last two days when my shots had a hint of grey skies I thought something bluer would be rather nice. Springtime is a wonderful time to go exploring in Portugal, we cannot wait to be back here in 2022. We missed it so much this year, and also last year⠀
Mine are only just germinating but at this time of year in the #Algarve they are in all their glory - love springtime in Portugal⠀
As we drive up to one of our favourite places for hikes in the Algarve, there's a bend in the road where you get a great view of one of the reservoirs. It was rather misty when I took this in early April of 2019, but I still cannot resist sharing it today. ⠀
Love it when they land on a wire and you can capture them in all their technicolor glory. ⠀
