‘Redshanks Alighting’

“On the branches of a horse-chestnut tree three wood-pigeons are watching with personal interest”

Chinese Geese, 1937. A stone-cold woodcut masterpiece by Tunnicliffe. The use of repetition, of plumage striations, of head/neck and of white undertails all combine to form a brilliant composition; the one 'errant' bird utterly essential. #TunnicliffeTuesday #cfTunnicliffe
The Valley, a bucolic scene by Charles Frederick #Tunnicliffe. This one needs a tap & zoom in to appreciate all the lovely detail

“Farm workers follow where the spinner has passed and collect the potatoes in shallow baskets.
Picking up potatoes is back-aching work”

‘Buzzards above the Mawddach Estuary’
#CFTunnicliffe
“When twilight turns to darkness, the swifts rise higher and higher into the night air and there they sleep on the wing.
In the very early dawn, as light creeps into the sky, they dive down again”

“Violet and coltsfoot are among the first Spring flowers. Growing among the roots of the trees are violets and lesser celandine”
