[QUOTE="geefull, post: 2336764, member: 305199"] good afternoon all :) 4.5 today Lots of birds about here just now :) on the way home from Mum's yesterday we noticed a flock of gulls following a ploughing tractor, a big flock of grey geese in a field where there had been potatoes harvested and a flock of about 100 swans browsing amongst the stubble a couple of fields further over. Loch Eye is nearby and it's an SSI. Fortunately we haven't had as many bird strike power cuts so far this year :joyful: The local Hydro board (power company ;) ) started putting wind spinners on some of the power lines across noted bird flight paths last year, they look like small, flat sheets of plastic with a fluorescent patch on one side and a bit of that shiny hologram pattern on the other, they are on a sort of swivel and spin in the wind, seems to work :) a quiet day sorting out kitchen stuff, I think plastic storage boxes breed when we're not looking :hilarious: do a bit of knitting, a bit of painting, a bit of cooking and there you have my day :) Hope your day is treating you well :) [USER=238814]@gennepher[/USER] - cute hedgehog, all curled up ;) and an interesting one for today, a watchful observer over a serene Santa ;) and I see the cunning Xmas fence is coming on by leaps and bounds :D [USER=179219]@dunelm[/USER] - very good fluid foliage and I like your fisherman, is he of the ilk that uses a cormorant too? we had a visiting cormorant down by the harbour last year :) [USER=505893]@Muddy Cyclist[/USER] - sounds like you have a full creative program for today :joyful: [USER=374421]@Krystyna23040[/USER] - glad Archie is progressing so well :) [USER=493719]@jjraak[/USER] - enjoyed the pictures, good travel in good company ;) art bits - no 1 - one of my quick(ish) tree pencil sketches [ATTACH=full]45791[/ATTACH] no 2 - memory of an uphill walk on a sunny day a couple of years ago [ATTACH=full]45792[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
