"Every day you may make progress. Every step may be fruitful. Yet there will stretch out before you an ever-lengthening, ever-ascending, ever-fruitful path. You know you will never get to the end of the journey. But this, so far from discouraging, only adds to the joy and glory of the climb." Sir Winston Churchill
Try Sky Watch Friday for lots of views from all parts of the globe, my view is from a long walk along the river on a changeable day. And the bird - that was just pure luck.
