Thought I'd say hi to and thank you for following with a rare photo of me with some pots and one of my pieces:

Morning wander. First day out of bed in a week. The fungi have been busy. Fly agaric no longer the fairytale red. Not sure what the others are though.

Sick in bed but in good company with @nataliehaynes.bsky.social latest tomb.
Oh and bonus of being the first person to borrow the library book!

Morning reflections over the millpond. Sun peaking through. Dewdrops decorating leaves and fruit. The beech is starting to show it's true copper self.

Morning wander. Reflections on the millpond. A solitary passion flower scales the building for some rays. Sunlight belies the chill in the air.

Morning walk. My tree. Lots of fungi appearing but not in focus cause my phone isn't great at close-up .... Fallen acorns for the jays. Dog getting in on the act.

Morning wander.
Reflections on the millpond. Chased off a heron, he's after the moor hen chicks. Leaves changing. Discovered a new blackberry bush.

Morning wander. Reflections on the millpond. Colours changing everywhere. Welcome to the reds of autumn 🍁.... and some lichen.

Morning wander.
Signs of the approaching change of season everywhere. Pears and apples looking appealing to me (and the dogs). Feather in the grass.

Reading the papers in the shade next to two dogs enjoying the sun in their own way.

Morning wander. Brooding clouds over the millpond. Golden Fields, leaves starting to change colour and a spiky flower.

Morning walk. Storm evidence littering the paths. So many different types of lichen. The yellow 💛

Morning wander before the storm hits. Two sodden dogs and face pleasantly wet. A Trio of acorns and feather with raindrop.

Morning swim at Broughty Ferry.
Two very tired dogs and that intoxicating smell of sea dogs.

Morning wander. Millpond with blurry clouds. Feathers, poppies.... and the two dogs checking each other out.
