I had to include this as nearly every evening the Herons give me a flypast over my roof. A large squawk and then a seamless glide to a nearby location for a nap.

 Just thought I would share this with you.

This is the Strathallen Terminus in Douglas, where the electric trams travel to the north of the island as far as Ramsey. 

View towards Ballakelly Farm

Another Manx scene of a country road with farm buildings and the old Manx stone walls so unique to the island which I love so much

Bridge over the Lhen Trench

 Bridge over the Lhen Trench
The Lhen Trench in the northern part  of the Isle of Man. It passes under this bridge to the sea. This is such a fascinating spot. I've heard stories that the Vikings use to bring their boats up this narrow spot from the sea.
