I went for a walk this morning, nothing novel there I hear you say but, today I went over to the green lane area, I had a couple of encounters over there yesterday so I went back, you never know. … More Watcher in the Gorse
No, it’s not a typo, the cam site is where I have set up my wildlife camera, there’s a Badger sett nearby so I’m hoping to catch their activity in the area. For a long time I only ever saw one badger or several Badgers but only ever one at a time? This is a tale of two Stonechats … More Friends at the Cam Site
Has Spring finally sprung in this wee corner of Perthshire? … More Dare I say it?
Remember these things when you were younger? I was searching, in my brain, for a title for this one and ….. I’ve been off here for a while now, not sure why, I seem to have been in a bit of a doldrum lately. I’m finding that everything, everywhere is becoming very watered down so … More Not a Pheasant Plucker!

Much as I love the word dreich, it just works, I am getting truly fed up of it, grey, dull, dank skies, often raining and not real rain but that misty wet stuff that clings when it lands. To my memory, the last sunny day we had was Jan 19th when i went up to the reservoir, the sun did try to get through a couple of days back but only for a few minutes, then gave up. Apparently the Jetstream is pointing right at us and a weather front is stuck over Scandinavia and we’ve had Easterly winds all this time ……. cold! … More Walking in Dreich
I always have my phone with me when I’m out walking, I record bird sightings on BirdTrack, I take photographs, sharing photos with family and sometimes, I use it to actually contact people!!!!! This is a record of phone pics on my recent walks. … More January around the patch
