Good morning everyone, it’s just gone 09:00 here in Central Scotland, after one of those restless, very sleepless nights, I awoke and took my usual look out the windows. I grabbed my phone, not sure a camera would be very effective for this job, and wandered outside in flip-flops and goonie as ever 🙂 I … More Play misty for me …
I’ve just come to realise that there is a set of birds out there that only appear in the garden as the weather begins to decline, maybe not decline, the temperature drops perhaps. I’ve spotted a (the) Mistle Thrush a couple of times now, a pair of Brambling dropped in on Sunday & Monday and … More They call me the Creeper
I am very lucky to have a great selection of regular garden visitors to the feeders and now and then, a less common visitor might drop by but I don’t think I have any favourites, apart from maybe colouration making them more pleasing to photograph and share. … More Cedric & Calliope Dine Out
The first weekend in November, I don’t think I actually noticed until later in the day, I guess that’s age and retirement for you. It was a real mixed bag of weather for the whole weekend; pretty cold, calm, sunny, wet, windy ….. anything else? … More Into November

Memory tells me that the night skies in October were mostly cloud bound but I did manage to get some shots and timelapse clips of Aurora … More October Skywatch
You may not remember but when I left you, I was down at the ponds, I’d just been admiring an Autumnal Acorn; I followed the tree line all the way round and back to the lane, not a path I take very often and one reason was that I started counting the apple trees on the patch. I’d reached five and was walking along glancing into the woods beside me, that’s where all the apples are, when I heard a screeching sound. I stopped, opened Merlin on my phone to help ID the screeches, maybe a young Sparrowhawk? I stepped towards the woods and the old fallen fence when the screeching got louder and I looked down! … More Weekly Digest
It’s been getting progressively colder all week and a week of very mixed weather, we had storm somebody or other, blew a hoollie ALL night then the next day was post-storm windy day, certainly clearing leaves off the Autumnal trees. It’s also been a great week for sunrise and set, not every day but a good few and of course …. a Lemmon! … More Weekly Digest
it was a reasonably clear night, they’ve been mostly cloudy recently so, I set up a camera out on the patio, looking North West ish with my usual overnight time-lapse lens fitted, a Viltrox 13mm 1.4 so pretty wide and fixed or, Prime in Nikon terms and let it run. … More What a Lemmon!
