There are five new photographs on the Photo page, starting from number one.
The sunset pic was taken from our B&B when we visited Oban a couple of years ago. Oban bay is in the foreground, and in the distance, you are looking towards the Isle of Mull. It truly is a beautiful place and well worth a visit. Some of the many Gold Finches that visit the garden daily. they are such colourful little birds. Liz.
Ponies in the New Forest. Dad took this picture of a cow in Mid Wales. Lynne.
This is Peters House in the USA, overlooking the Lake where the Ospreys nest.
Tonight when I went to feed the Badgers I could hear two Tawney Owls calling to each other in the valley. We often hear Owls, tonight it was more pronounced as it is so very still here tonight. When I returned after feeding, I panned the valley cameras around the field hoping that I would see at least one of them perched in a tree. I will leave the valley camera on just i case one comes in view.
There is a chance that the Deer that were in the valley last night, may return tonight. The Deer were seen yesterday afternoon when Tass and Kye were taken for their walk. Kye was the first to see them. There were five Red Deer, they were in the small field that you get to through the gateway, that you can see in the far left hand corner of the valley. She went to start to chase them. She soon stopped when called back. They probably didn’t see the Dogs as they ambled across the field into the wood.
The two Fox that I turned the camera onto are ready to mate. That is another good reason to leave the valley camera on tonight. It depends where they go in the valley if will will see it.
I set the Telescope to look at Mars tonight. The forecast was clear skies. Unfortunately with the cloud there is not a Star in sight at the moment. If it clears, up to 9ish or maybe a little later I will put the camera on. It will only be on the Moon thumbnail. As soon as we get a clear night I will put it on. It is also a good time to see Saturn, although at this time of year you may not be able to see the rings very clearly. This will be the first time that we have tried to show one of the Planets, so I am not sure how it will turn out.
