The old and the new

I had a lovely surprise today as my daughter phoned me mid afternoon to see if she could call in as she had finished work early! As I was just about to go Blip hunting (the rain had finally stopped) she said she would come with me. It was rather over cast as we set out but brightened a little as we went. This gas rig moves around and I liked the idea of old fossil fuel gas and the new wind turbines side by side. 
The extra is a little egret I think which I often see and I managed to catch it as it flew away but the background is rather blurred - my daughter said she thought that added to it - I'm not sure!
