A Trip Out – Cut Short

The intention was to choose a different venue to take my walk, and to avoid others, however, I soon learned that on this occasion I was less successful. I had assumed as I was at the furthest point from the Main Entrance of the Millennium Park that it would be less frequented; I found I was entirely wrong in this assumption! I had been deceived by the total lack of cars in this short road to some industrial units, where in the past I had often observed numerous parked vehicles.
It was noticeable for the large proportion of cyclists both singly and in small groups compared to the numbers I was used to at the southern end of the outer path. I had also left it late, as from past observations, by late afternoon, many had returned home, however on this occasion I was wrong on every point.
I decided that at this time, to venture further meant I would encounter more such groups, so after taking a few shots of a lone pigeon preening itself, I decided that to return was a good idea. I went to another lake, the one at Stewartby, the Quest Pit, where I took a series of images to create a panorama, then headed for home, even though this spot was entirely bereft of people, there was little sign of any birdlife.
It was the least successful escape from the house to date, as the gallery of images only offered the chance of some preening shots of a pigeon and a handheld Panorama image of the Quest Pit Lake.
