A visit to the Zoo Parc Reynou at Le Vigen (87) with members of the photo club at the begining of october 2021. It was a fine day so we were able to spend the whole afternoon outdoors photographing the numerous animals and birds. .
A visit to the arboretum La Jonchère in Haute Vienne with several friends. La Jonchère is mainly known for conifers, for example, the biggest Sequoia in France.

A visit to the ornithological reserve Teich (Arcachon basin) with two friends. It was VERY hot (37°) and humid too but we were able to see and photograph many different birds - some rare. We spent two days at the reserve, evenings in a hotel and meals in local restaurants including an oyster bar.
An evening at the Urbaka festival of street theatre in Limoges. Some very good performances, but conditions very difficult for photographers - very little natural light after 21h, almost no lighting and performers in constant movement.
