All handheld and rushed a bit TBH, but hopefully will help brighten your day! PP'd and tweaked a bit in Rawtherapee.
Oh used a CP filter on the DFA 28-105mm.

" they are on the red list so every birth deserves to be celebrated "
Not when they swoop down and nick your ice cream out of your paws, as happened to me the other week in Perranporth
Good shot though 👌

I reckon that bird is simply "pining for the fjords"

Yes #2 the pick for me! Really eye catching.

Another vote for those railings!
I think that what the sets of photos from your wanderings is showing is the value of getting to know an area really, really well and going back to the same places in different lights, different weather, different times of day, different seasons, different lenses... You're almost forced to look for something different in the familiar and that leads to insight, creativity etc. Much as I used to find a few years ago when walking the fields with dog and camera and may yet find again with the new dog.
Keep going back, keep seeing something different in the same old things!

The best thing about this forum is seeing people clearly enjoying their photography - another lovely little set, and yes those glowing railings steal the show
Thanks to all the other comments posted much appreciated.

Well that looks like a great day out - I bet a few tots of Rum and one or two Ales were drunk that day.
The conditions do look a little difficult with that gorgeous bright sunshine, but you've certainly captured the flavour of the day - I particularly like the shantymen shot, good choice on the format
