Focused Moments is going to be ‘on hiatus’ until 9th September while I attempt to finish my dissertation. I look forward to catching up with everyone then!

Sark Sheep Races
Focused Moments is on a bit of a hiatus at present as we are on holiday in the beautiful Channel Islands. But I couldn’t resist sharing a quick iPhone snap taken today at the Sark Sheep Races. Believe it or not, those jockeys are teddies! Only in the British Isles 😉
All grown up
A few days ago I posted an image of an immature capsid bug. Here’s a shot from last year of one all grown up, surveying the garden kingdom.
Dancing poppies
Through the dancing poppies stole
A breeze most softly lulling to my soul.– John Keats, Endymion, Book 1, l.565
Poppies in the evening
And far and wide, in a scarlet tide,
The poppy’s bonfire spread.
Bayard Taylor, Poems of the Orient, The Poet in the East, Stanza 4
