Grey morning offset by colourful fall leaves

I missed sunset. However, I did get a nice piece of cake from a colleague, so worth going to the office!!

Kristi Tange @kristitange.bsky.social · 1d

Definitely a cormorant above!!

Also found this child’s duck, which I photographed, put onto Facebook as requested, and set it back on its journey on the Thames.

I didn’t hit my personal target for Clean River Thames in Sept, so decided to keep going. Lots and lots of plastic on the Crabtree foreshore in London. Filled 3 bags. Happy to see ducks waddling by the clean shoreline.

Are you planning to go pumpkin picking soon? Make sure you keep a bit of stalk attached and then put them in a dry, well-ventilated place like a greenhouse or sunny windowsill to dry out. This helps them ‘cure’. After this they are ready to be stored almost anywhere until Halloween or beyond.

This is extreme gardening.

At 55 feet high and 300 years old, it takes one gardener 10 weeks on a hydraulic cherry-picker to trim the hedges at Powis Castle, returning the yew hedges to their famous, cloud-like shapes.

A gardener stands holding electric shears on a huge red cherrypicker, trimming a gigantic, cloud-shaped, dark green hedge. The rolling green hills of the countryside stretch out in the background under a blue sky.

A few more bonus pics of the fog. Unfortunately there was a sewage leak which made serene photo-taking difficult!!
