Re: "Catch of the day" from Algarve
21.02,2015
It has started getting difficult to find new places for a walk along the marshes, without having to drive too far. this day we found one
and the "Catch of the Day" were two old rotten sun chairs with windscreen and a view, where we had lunch ( finger sandwiches
) very comfortably
View
Some flowers ( Rosemary)
A bougainvillea cut to become a tree
Apart from the view, the sun and the warm temperature, there was not much around so we moved a couple of kilometers. On the way an Eurasian Hoopoe Upupa epops, according to Dewi
at the same place as last time, but they are always a joy for the eyes

Re: "Catch of the day" from Algarve
Fa was tired, so I went on my own for a tour around an old fort on the waterfront.
this tree had the most almost intoxicant perfume and looked pretty as well
I think that it is a crested lark with butterfly
Small strange blue flowers; no idea what they are
(BTW a white iris has appeared in the garden
)
I presume the usual chiffchaff
A corner of the fort
Apricot? Peach?
The original entrance to the fortress
I love the fruit trees in flower against the blue sky
Another corner. There were probably water around the fortress
And the last corner with its "tower" (Morocco is/was right on the other side of the sea
)
I went back to Fa who was sitting comfortably in my chair placed in the sun
Next "Catch".....

Re: "Catch of the day" from Algarve
Fascinating again!
Like how you staged Fa's body!
This place looks like something from a fantasy wargame sometimes, and I like those! 
Really enjoying the pics, Lis!
Except the flowers...

Lovely pics again Lis.
Fa looks nice and relaxed. Hope you did not disturb him too much taking his pic.

He is over dressed 
I even took off the stockings and the pull. He is always cold. Must have to do with age perhaps

Quite different from Lausanne AND Lugano at the moment. I hope that it will all look like these photos before the 18th of March
