It's very cold today but otherwise beautiful weather, blue skies and sunshine, and no wind. We had a lovely walk through the fields at Cammo (some of which are sadly soon to disappear under houses)
There were plenty of birds in the fields and hedges including
yellowhammer and
tree sparrow and these stock doves
We then walked round
Cammo Country Park which was remarkably free of mud, it's usually the muddiest place in Edinburgh but this year has been worryingly free of rain. The autumn colours are wonderful
Plenty of birds here too including good numbers of
redwings and
fieldfares, I was slightly
worried beforehand that we would be too early to see many of these two
species of winter visiting thrushes, but I was delighted to be proven
wrong. It was difficult to get photos as they were all flying around so much but here's one of the redwings
Lovely also to see this goldcrest
Lots of lovely Shadows for
Shadow Shot Sunday
(see more shadows on my Shapeshifting Green Blog
here).
Love how the shadows spill. That last shot is intriguing.
ReplyDeleteWeather today has been just dire, barely left the house
ReplyDeleteThe amount of land being gobbled up for one reason or another is really discouraging. You wonder how much more we can keep doing this.
ReplyDeleteThe shadowy pathway seems so inviting!
ReplyDeleteFabulous Autumn colours.
