Kestrel in Bushy Park

and  red deer wrestling.  Their antlers will not be shed until April/May and will be quickly replaced ready for the rut in the autumn.  Deer antler is the fastest growing bone in the mammalian kingdom and the only one of its kind to exist.  
I managed to walk a long way again today in between stints in a wheelchair..  It is now 3 1/2 weeks since I broke the neck off my femur and all is working well a.gain
Best wishes to everyone for the holiday season and bless you for all your lovely comments and star sprinklings.  I really do appreciate them and will try to reciprocate better next year.
