Stour Valley Summer
Sometimes when a Thatcher completes a roof he will fashion a straw pheasant and place it on the ridge. No need in this case, the red tiles compliment this cock pheasant enjoying the evening sun on the barn roof at Cookwell, Shillingstone. - Graham Rains (photographer)

Brilliant capture, Graham.
I've never seen a pheasant on a roof before (and I'm a bird watcher). And the colours are glorious.
Your pictures are beautiful & inspiring...they yake you to another world...one where there is beauty, history and tranquility...Thanks
