EDITORS COMMENTS
In this charming and amusing photograph captured in November 1976, we see Postman Jim Burgess accompanied by an unexpected companion on his daily rounds in Keswick, Cumbria. The mischievous pheasant, seemingly fascinated by the postman's presence, follows him up the garden path with unwavering determination. With a touch of humor and irony, this feathered friend takes pleasure in pecking at Jim's ankles each morning as he delivers mail to the residents of this picturesque town. This snapshot perfectly encapsulates the unique bond that can form between humans and wildlife. Despite its small size, this pheasant has managed to make a lasting impression on both Jim and the local community. As they witness this unusual sight day after day, it serves as a reminder of how nature can surprise us when we least expect it. The image also highlights the important role that postmen like Jim play in our lives. They are not only responsible for delivering letters but also become familiar faces within their communities. Through rain or shine, they faithfully carry out their duties while encountering unexpected encounters along their routes. As we delve into this nostalgic moment from the 1970s through Memory Lane Prints' lens, let us appreciate both the beauty of wildlife and those who dedicate themselves to serving others through communication channels such as mail delivery.
