Photo: Stag, Jackdaw
Yesterday, to deliver a painting, I cycled from the studio into town. 8 miles should be unremarkable but as I’ve yet to collect my repaired wheel I’m riding on a severe buckle caused by 3 broken spokes.
So returning home I opted for a slow photo-cycle away from the usual route of the quays, and zig-zagged through the small streets parallel with the Luas tracks.
Eventually I reach Parkgate Street, and leave town by the relative peace of the road between the Park and the Liffey. I leave my camera swinging around my neck.
At Islandbridge I caught a glimpse of this stag inside the Park, and as I made my way to the gate with my camera, a jackdaw landed on his back. So 2 miles from O’Connell Street I was thinking, I like my Dublin.

Beautiful. It makes me miss a place called Bushy Park, which was near where I used to live. It has herds of red and also fallow deer. Right smack bang in the midst of suburban West London.
What a treat! They seem very comfortable with one another.
Be careful on the dodgy wheel, Eolaí.
Obviously most comfortable a stagcycle the jackdaw has chosen for his ride.
And a lovely reward for taking this very detour. Thanks for sharing, Eolaí.
