'Orphaned Chicks, Vigur, Iceland' by _Zinni_

Orphaned Chicks, Vigur, Iceland, a photo by _Zinni_ on Flickr.

And here ends another busy and fun weekend. I am often asking my little girl what her favourite bit of the weekend was just to see what she's been enjoying. When I asked her today I was sure she was going to say bouncing on the bouncy castle at her friend's party but instead she said it was eating gingerbread men with her Grandpa. And likewise if you were to ask me what my favourite bit was you'd probably think it was going out with friends on Saturday night but there's actually a moment today that really made me so happy. My husband, daughter, son and I went to Costa Coffee for lunch and even though we had a big table between us somehow at one point we were all snuggled up happily on the small sofa and it was so nice. I love moments like this that make me realise just how lucky I am.

Here is a suitably snuggly photo which is sure to make you say "Awwwww". These chicks just look so soft and cuddly. The fact that this picture is called "Orphaned chicks" does make me sad though.

Happy weekend everyone. I had been hoping that the weather would perk up a bit considering it's June and everything but it looks like the miserable rain is set to hang around for a whole longer. I'm just grateful that so far I've not been caught in any huge downpour even though there have been lots.

I like this photo a lot. It's a really simple photo really but it had me staring at it for ages. It looks to me like those birds are either spelling something out or they have organised themselves as sheet music in some way. I don't think that's the case though, it's just some birds hanging out and enjoying their day. This is however a brilliantly observed photo which is beautiful in it's simplicity.

This sight apparently reminds the photographer of Halloween and when I look at it, I feel like I should be reminded of something too. I don't know know what though. I just think it has a kind of excitment to it, like something is about to happen. I don't know why I get that feeling though. I can, however, tell you that I love the composition, I love the colour of the sky and I love that bird formation. Pretty amazing photo in general really!
