Simple Delights

Walking along a path with small dog on a dry calm morning when the dog stops to sniff forcing me to stop and stand gazing vacantly into the hedgerow. Then a tiny flicker of movement, whatch closely and there is a long tailed tit on a branch. It quickly flies away unable to be captured on camera. Further along a small path stright ahead if me in the middle of the path apparently floating freely in mid-air I see a single withered leaf fluttering close up apparently unsuspended in mid-air attached to nothing. it was fluttering gently on the breeze can't get camera to focus on it. No sign of how it was suspended but presumably a spiders web. Utterly delightful. And free. At the point of consumption. As they say. Which opens many a can of worms.
