My first swift of the year - a sight to gladden the heart! Its name 'Apus apus' - from the Greek 'a' (without) 'pous' (foot) - comes from the ancient idea that they never land & therefore have no feetšŸ¦ā€ā¬› It is a plausible myth - no other bird spends so much of its life airbornešŸ¦ā€ā¬›

In summer, light extends further each day. We call this lingering daylight the simmer dim. To walk in the simmer dim is to be suspended between day and night. In the stillness it seems worlds combine, boundaries of the everyday are thinner and there is magic everywhere #Shetland

I’m glad the lighthouse garden is so near just a hundred and sixty steps from home and I am here I like sitting on this bench the best it feels like I’m half in this world and half in the next. Holderness & Hornsea Gazette

I’m glad the lighthouse 
garden is so near

just a hundred and sixty 
steps from home 
and I am here 

I like sitting on
this bench the best

it feels like I’m half
in this world
and half in the next.

It's another bank holiday weekend although the weather might not be great. Wonderfully stylish Fred Taylor (1875-1963) travel poster celebrates the open air pool at Scarborough. The glamour just shines through. The South Bay pool opened in 1915. It held regular swimming and
