Yet again it was another one of those days where Ted and I were set to go out for a walk and as we got to the front door a squally shower met us. In the end I gave up and just took some random photos around the garden.

This is a screen grab I took from the Portland Heights Hotel webcam looking over Chesil Beach. To the left of the image it looks like a funnel cloud forming. If it is and it touched the water it would be called a Water Spout. However if it touched land we would have ourselves a Tornado.
It did neither and we ended up with a very heavy shower. In fact one of many which intensified throughout the afternoon and into the evening.
Not really the shot I was after, but here is the female Great Tit returning to the nest box. I waited a good 5 minutes or so for her to leave, but she didn't. So I guess she was keeping her chicks warm.
Hmm one of the local Herring Gulls seemed interested in the comings and goings of the Great Tits. I guess if the Great Tits were fledglings, then this gull wouldn't hesitate in picking them off.
I just managed to get out of the back door as this Dassault Falcon flew over Portland this afternoon, hence only a record shot of it.
