Coming out of my shell

I've had my head stuck in books most of this week to meet a deadline so I haven't been up to much. Today I was feeling tired and muzzy so it was nice to get out at lunchtime to clear my head. Spotted this little fella on my travels. The picture was taken hastily - it's someone's garden, and I was a bit worried the home-owner might not take kindly to me lurking in front of their house with a camera so it was point, click, and depart briskly. The main thing is: I've started blipping, something I've been meaning to do for ages.
