Avian Circle the first film following the birds around

The Earl’s Palace, Birsay, Orkney, Scotland

The birds chirped and swooped in fragmentary swarms and mutterings bordering upon mini murmurings. The sound and sight was amazing. In taking pictures around The Earl’s Palace at Birsay I missed a major murmuring and a jumbled muttering, but at least I did catch something of the Avian Circle following the birds around The Earl’s Palace, Birsay, Orkney, Scotland.

Higgledy Hedge Row Piggledy at The Earl’s Palace, Birsay, Orkney, Scotla...

There was the whole fantastic ruin of The Earl’s Palace at Birsay and as I was being asked to leave my final frames were of this plant seemingly trying to get into the scheduled monument. I was being told that we had other places to go and that it was Refreshments O'clock. The woody stems had my imagination in over drive.

This is a second film presentation with much less strong stressed images. There is a greatly reduced soundtrack. Altogether less sometimes is more, we all have our perception to please.

I nearly wrote tease, please and release, but I thought better of that, the hedgerow has more than enough of plenty within it’s burgeoning boughs.
