INTRODUCTION
Saturday was a music day, and I have plenty of pictures to share from recent days.
MUSICAL KEYS – THE KORG
These sessions are organised for the benefit of autistic people, so before I get into the meat of this section here is stimtheline’s magnificent Autistic Bill of Rights:
The Korg is a very sophisticated machine (for classical music enthusiasts it looks a 21st century version of a clavichord, but it does so much more). I will let the photographs tell the story (I got most of these by playing with my left hand while using the camera with my right FYI):
BIRDS OF ALL SIZES
We start with the largest bird to be a regular feature of life in Britain – the mute swan:
Next we come to a much smaller species, which I have not previously captured on camera, a little wader called a turnstone (I seem to recall that a few years back The Lynn News had a columnist who used Turnstone as a nom de plume):
Further along the Great Ouse and on the side of the river were a few specimens of a larger bird that is not a regular sight in these parts – the greylag goose:
We end with a couple of cormorant shots:
I heard an avian virus is killing some of the UK’s swans which is sad and concerning. Love your Korg!
That is indeed concerning if true – they are a very impressive sight when gliding along the surface of a river.
About the birds-do you get to see Mandarin ducks where you live? They’re my favorite kind of bird
Occasionally, but they are not regular visitors to our area.
The turnstone is a lovely bird. I’ve not heard of it before. Thank you for sharing 🙂
I’m drooling over your Korg. My keyboard is currently in storage halfway across the country and yours makes my fingers itch!
Thge Korg music centre that I used on Saturday actually belongs to Musical Keys – I was merely sampling it – still I am glad that you were impressed by it since it is a splendid piece of kit.
Beautiful photo’s!
Thank you 🙂
Thank you for the mention 🙂
Hey there, I think your blog might be having browser compatibility issues.
When I look at your blog in Chrome, it looks fine but when opening
in Internet Explorer, it has some overlapping. I just wanted to give you a
quick heads up! Other then that, superb blog! http://chiharaminori.cn/uchome/link.php?url=https://goldprice.com
Next time I on a library computer I will look at the blog in explorer and see what happens.
