As a brief diversion from the UK's current news headlines, here's a party political broadcast on behalf of Canada geese. Portrait snapped in Kelsey Park, Beckenham. #wexmondays, #fsprintmonday, #NaturePhotography, #BirdsSeenIn2022

Do the hop: Dan Lloyd and Bobby Thompson save on tyre wear during the second of three @BTCC races @Brands_Hatch yesterday, while Dan Cammish scarpers in the distance.

I doubt Ford Anglias or bygone banger racing @Brands_Hatch will stir much interest this week, while the world waits to hear whether some F1 teams spent more in 2021 than Truss & Kwarteng have frittered in the past fortnight, but just in case.

The spotlight might be trained on Formula 1, but motor racing has many worthwhile forms.

Always in our thoughts, but today has particular poignance. Hard to believe two years have elapsed already 🧡🧡

You don't need monstrous levels of power and grip to create good motor racing. Just apply some numbers to the flanks of a 63-year-old box. Action from the Mini Festival @Brands_Hatch yesterday: #WexMondays, #fsprintmonday

Another month slips by: I reckon I've attended 30 motorsport events so far in 2022, which probably makes me dafter now than I was 40 years ago.

Another month, another few thousand miles added to the Peugeot 207 CC's odometer.

Belated entry for #WexMondays & #fsprintmonday. I won't apply any 'wildlife' tags, because ring-tailed lemurs tend to be a scarce commodity in the London suburbs. This is a blatant cheat, taken at @ZSLWhipsnadeZoo

More fluff and nonsense that escaped from my keyboard. Warning – might contain motor racing:

My knowledge of dragonflies is as sketchy as my grasp of quantum physics. I think this is a broad-bodied darter, but would appreciate confirmation or correction. Spotted over the weekend @WarnhamLNR. #wexmondays, #fsprintmonday, #wildlifephotography

One month, six events, nine days spent observing and photographing internal combustion: guess I must still be quite partial to motorsport.

Competitive period elegance is always abundant @GoodwoodRRC. The Aston Martin DP214 of Simon Hadfield & Wolfgang Friedrichs leads the way through Woodcote Corner during last weekend's 79th Members' Meeting. #WexMondays, #FSprintmonday, #79MM

Apologies, world: March signals the resumption of more itinerant whimsy.
