Fly Morning

One of the benefits of the bilberry scoop....

...... is you can quickly pick enough fruit before the flies become unbearable. Some mornings it's midges; lately it's been flies. Finding a breeze helps.


Deer on such mornings are coping however they can. In their case tails are useless for this, but long ears are constantly twitching. A close look at the hind below reveals very long eyelashes.


Twice lately I've stood up from picking bilberries to find deer have come very close.
