Greetings! I’m passionate about the natural world we inhabit; the written word; and photography. Oh, and I should mention – I’m an eternal optimist. My cup is always half full.

There's something special about January light don't you think? It's all about soft greys and muted tones, heavy skies and wispy, dead grasses. ☁️ ☁️ ☁️ ☁️ ☁️ ☁️ #january #mutedtones #grey #fiftyshades_of_nature #canal #chesterfieldcanal #boats #canalboats #narrowboats #lincsgrammers #sheclicksnet #countryliving #country_features #thisprettyengland #countrylife #getoutdoors #getyourwalkingbootson #world_beautifulshots #lifeintheslowlane #capturingbritain_rural #alittlebeautyeveryday #dreamylittleplaces
Swans on flooded farmland .... it doesn't take long for the natural world to be turned on its head by extremes of weather. Recent flooding has left many acres of Lincolnshire farmland under water; swans and other birds have quickly taken advantage of it. . . . . #swans #floods #lincolnshire #farmland #agriculture #farming #be_one_rural #countryliving #countrylife #countryside #picturetokeep_rural #yourcountryside #capturingbritain_rural #lincsgrammers #swansofinstagram #waterbirds
Today is the last day of the Christmas holidays so we went to Bransby Horses Rescue Centre to visit a horse that was recently "gifted" to our granddaughter. You can buy a year's adoption and the money goes towards the upkeep of the horse. She was so disappointed to learn that the horse had died in the meantime, and we had no idea. However, feeding hay to this cute ginger Shetland pony helped soften the bad news. We're now aiming to adopt another pony for her 🐴 🐴 🐴 🐴 🐴 🐴 #bransbyhorsesrescueandwelfare #horserescue #madabouthorses #bransbyhorses #granddaughter #horseadoption #lincolnshire #shetlandpony #ginger #countryliving #countrylife #animallover #thecountrybloggers #sheclicksnet #lincsgrammers #horsesofinstagram #horses_of_instagram #horses #equine #country_features #be_one_rural #horsesarelife
I set off with the intention of walking five miles this afternoon, but only made three as I got distracted by ancient inscriptions, crumbling stonework and interesting old windows. . . . . #countrychurches #countryliving #countrylife #lincolnshirewolds #lincolnshire #countrywalking #thevikingway #sheclicksnet #getyourwalkingbootson #architecture_lovers #patina_perfection #rusticgamestrong #tv_doorsandwindows #beautyinsimplicity #bitsofbuildings #rusticcharm #momentsofmine #nothingisordinary #tv_hiddenbeauty #style_and_decay #littlestoriesofmylife #lincsgrammers
