Iron Bird on the Fence This is near the entrance to Inholmes Park which is not open to the public. A footpath goes past the gate, from where this metal sculpture can be seen beside the drive. Several other Geographs feature it too, reflecting the limited photo opportunities for this unusually private square.

A Red Squirrel One of several ironwork creatures on the fences in Inholmes Park. See <a href="https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1642982">SU3373 : Iron Owl</a> for example. This is beside the entrance gate to the park, and above the squirrel's head is a cctv camera on a pole which turned to look at me as I took this. A bit creepy, but I'm on a public footpath so too bad. I gave them a wave and continued my walk.

Old Road to Lambourn Woodlands The remnant of a road cut in half by the construction of the M4. Beyond the motorway the top end is still in use as access to Hilldrop Farm, but this bit is now just a track into fields, albeit with a better surface than usual.

Deer in a field A bit blurry, but you get the idea. You can bet if I'd messed around changing lenses they would have all cleared off. There are quite a lot of deer in the woods, but if you catch them in the open like this you've only got a few seconds before they run for it.
