I’m just a walkin’ in the sunshine
10th Aug 2026
Hi all, I’ve been out for a wander around the patch this morning, all pretty quiet but a beautiful day is building. We’re lucky to have had a few days of rain, much of England and Wales are suffering drought conditions, something isn’t right is it? … More I’m just a walkin’ in the sunshine

Noctilucent displays for June 2026
11th Jul 2026
I recently re-blogged a post from 2025 that showed the Noctilucent cloud shows from June of that year which, spookily happened again on exactly the same date this year. Of course, there’s nothing spooky about it, it’s that time of year but, in my mind, to have clear skies AND Noctilucent clouds on the same night 365 days apart!!!

Walking with Warblers
4th Jun 2026
Some of you may remember that I’ve been lurking in that area quite a bit recently, watching for Fox cubs but also, listening to an elusive Garden Warbler which continues to sing its heart out from the surrounding cover but pop out to be photographed? Not a chance. I did get a couple of distant shots a few days back, good enough to confirm ID but I really wanted to get some decent shots. … More Walking with Warblers
