Sorry about the mix-up with the brooch post- that's what happens when you mess up your html- you end up with JUST a link up! If you missed the next Brooch instalment, hit the last post!
Moor hens, I find, are rather timid.Unlike they goosey and ducky counterparts, they will scurry away from you regardless of your intentions etc.
Yet, there are two unusually audacious moorhens who were oblivious to me and just pootled around as I took these photos in the park! My park is VERY well used. I had to perch my camera on a bench and take it nonchalantly in about 10 seconds between pedestrians and dog-walkers.
I teamed it with this country casuals belt (also charity-shopped) and worked from there- the navy rosette brooch matched the belt, the cardie, given by a friend moving back to Canada and the navy blue F21 tights. Deichmann boots and then I felt I needed a scarf. This one is silk and I bought it in Bali from a Javanese stall at the International Arts festival a decade ago. I'm very fond of it and I always feel like an art teacher when I wear it tied artistically around my neck!
