Lovely weather for this week's walk along the Water of Leith on Monday. Lots of birds too, including large numbers of redwings hiding in the shrubbery and a large flock of long tailed tits flitting amongst the bare branches of the trees, looking like animated musical notes. Dippers and a heron on the river. Also a kestrel being mobbed by a crow. Several grey squirrels leaping amongst the trees. It was a lovely day for photos too, clear and sunny......
for Weekend Reflections and Shadow Shot Sunday. There are also some nice reflections in the photo in this post.

Beautiful! It's wonderful to see the seasons change in your part of the world.
Beautiful! We've had some beautifully sunny days here also, but they have been a bit windy. Have really enjoyed seeing the sun. We know it will disappear for awhile...never to be seen for several months!
Ideal.
Very romantic post!I loved the path and the reflection, you can think about poetry in this adorable place!
purrs, love and Happy weekend reflections

Beautiful pictures, loved the reflection in the water
Very nice reflection is a pool of leaves :-)
I love long-tailed tits - they sound so perky as they work their way along the hedgerow. Lately we are beginning to see them on our birdtable, which is a new and quite exciting development.
I love that pool! Great photo, Juliet.
Juliet, the reflection is colorful! Love it! :)
I like the reflection but that top photo is truly outstanding.
Sometimes it pays off to look down, up or around.
2nd photo looks like the shape of an upside down heart.
I love how everyone has a different view of the world. My very first thought was, "very cool ~ an upside down heart". I assumed everyone else would have seen and commented on it. Hmmmmmm.....guess I'm just looking for love in all the watery places.
Nice work :-)
Weekend Reflection ~ Evening Canals
Herons and Puffins feel like y family birds, just like elephant seems o be the family animal... We all love them so much.
Beautiful pictures.
Amazing where reflections can be found!
A visited reflection! How nice!
That is a lovely reflection in your Water of Leith. I love all the overhanging greenery and the scattering of autumn leaves. I think I would have loved the musty smell of the earth while taking the photograph.
Beautiful! Love the shadows on the bridge and the pond/puddle reflection - the colours!
great photo
good w end
That pathway looks so inviting and I love the colors reflected in the water!
Lovely atmosphere.
Beautiful place and reflection. :)
Beautiful shots and especially the second one! Thanks for your visit and birthday wish.
Hello
Lovely! I always enjoy seeing the seasons change in your blog!!
I like the pretty pond in the second photo very much!
Here tree leaves have turned blazing red now!!
What a lovely spot ... most inviting! Beautiful reflection ;-)
Hugs and blessings,
It looks like you could jump into that puddle into another world!
Lovely!
A great shadow shot as well! Looks like a great path for a walk.
Oh I miss the beauty....snow has arrived and we are now looking at a totally different color palet.
A beautiful series of photos!
What a lovely creation! The reflection on the water is very colorful, looks like a glass prism!
Have a great weekend!
Aaaah, lovely! Wish I could take a nice long walk here.
Wow, do I spy blue sky? That second shot is gorgeous, very impressive to make a puddle pretty! London is so, so wet that I haven't ventured outside this week and have chosen old pictures. Even our car is flooded!
Both the shadows and the reflections are magic.
What marvelous shots for the day! I love the reflections! And the shadows on the bridge are terrific! Isn't it wonderful to have enough sun to find shadows everywhere? We're having a day like that today!
Enjoy your weekend!

Beautiful walk, wonderful shots. I especially like the fence rail.
Fantastic shots. Your landscapes there are just beautiful.
How lovely. wish I could join you on this walk.
What a wonderful walk in the woods today...thank you so much!!!
What a tranquil place. Beautiful shadows and reflections!
What great photos these are my friend. :) Well done and such a good reflection :) Love it. Have a wonderful weekend :)
What a beautiful winter walk - such an air of serentity about these shots
The shadow along the path is wonderful - the railing shadow emphasizes following the path. As if it is telling us that if we do not stray from the trail, we will be rewarded with so many views of beautiful avian species. What a lovely place to forget about the mundane and trials of our lives.A place of beauty...
what a nice place to walk. very nice photos.

What a picturesque place you've shown us.
I enlarged both of the photos. They're quite pretty. I like the shadow of the railing and the pretty colors in both.
Thanks for stopping by my blog ~
Beautiful photos and that sounds like a magical walk!
we really live in a beautiful planet :). wonderful shots.
Sounds like a lovely walk. I like the reflections-so many colours!
look at that pretty pond - like a watercolor painting; a monet.
Beautiful scenery and wonderful shadows. Your first photo simply invites the onlooker to walk there.
Wonderful shots of the woods and all its beauty. I hope it stays that way forever.
I like the reflection photo alot, very nice. But the first photo is really outstanding, beautiful composition. It makes you want to walk down the path. Kathy

Oh the beauty that surounds you! Thanks for sharing such great shots and for all of the wonderful "gree" advice. Come to the drum circle one day :)
BEautiful scenery -- and I love the way the puddle brought the sky to earth.
A little bit of heaven..love the birds and beautiful weather.
Happy SSS.
beautiful images and I love that little pool.
Thanks for the kind words on my blog. I don´t see the dipper that often so I am so happy when I do :)
Love the path photo! Makes me remiss that I have not been out for walks lately.
What a beautiful place to go for a walk.
Hey Juliet,
The Water of Leith, looks amazing.
After reading about this treasure
further, I imagine walking
through paradise.
Please visit poemflesh when you
have a chance. You may find my
dialogue with the poet Michele
Battiste interesting.
