Stonehenge. Visited a few days before the Solstice, lots of visitors. Hidden the people from these photos with a combination of camera angles and remove tools in Lightroom #Stonehenge #AncientBritain #SalisburyPlain #StoneCircle #Prehistoric

Day 3 at Boles barrow. Super progress on the barrow mound with lots more flint including this rather splendid core. Also we think we located the pipe of the old water tower that Prof Piggott photod on the mound! High hopes for tomorrow. #Archaeology #veterans #wellbeing #salisburyplain #neolithic

Today’s lunchtime walk - visiting the memorial to Winnie the Pooh (or Winnipeg a Canadian WW1 mascot). Winnie lived in Tilshead in Wiltshire before ending up a London Zoo and sparking the name for Christopher Robin’s bear. Awww #winniethepooh #heritage #salisburyplain #disney

In the countryside - may be grey, but still lovely :)

A murky scene - a derelict barn and some trees with pale green landscape and grey skies above.

At an enjoyable #BigChalkConversation in Cambridge, for @thebaytrust.bsky.social, today. Offbeat highlights included finding someone who knew of @danthompson33.bsky.social
and an ex @rspb.bsky.social officer that had aided work in #GreatBustard reintroduction on #SalisburyPlain. www.big-chalk.org

Quick visit to #OldSarum to enjoy fab views on a gloriously sunny day. Plus Chemring at High Post testing flares & circuits being flown by Empire Test Pilots' School out of MOD Boscombe Down. And hats off to whoever transformed the #Jenga tower into #Stonehenge.

On our way to Gatwick Airport to drop off the rental car, we went through Stonehenge, and Jude was able to grab this picture on the fly. It was a distraction that we felt caused a car accident just around the area that resulted in a huge traffic tie-up. #stonehenge #salisburyplain #uk

Stonehenge was briefly mentioned in yesterday’s post on the Summer Solstice, but we felt that it needed its own post to really do it justice.

A quartet of King Penguins huddle on the black rock beach at Salisbury Plain in South Georgia. The location holds one of the largest colonies of King Penguins in the world. During breeding season the Plain may hold as many as 150,000 individual penguins. In the background, a blurry collection of penguins fade into the haze.
