Today’s guest picture is another from our son Tony. I never tire of his East Wemyss scenes, and I am grateful that he gets up early to walk his dogs before going to work. This one was taken at 5.45 am on Tuesday. Unlike Tony, I don’t leap up in the morning, and for theContinue reading “Better than expected”

A final outing for the year with Mrs T
Today’s guest picture comes from my sister Caroline. She was very impressed by the Christmas decorations in her local hairdresser’s salon. I am too. After a night with more rain and the sound of mournful geese calling out in the mist as they circled the town at midnight, it was a relief to wake upContinue reading “A final outing for the year with Mrs T”
A walk in the woods
Today’s guest picture is another from my brother Andrew. He is on an outing with my sister Susan, and they visited Ickworth House near Bury St Edmunds today. We had some serious rain here over night. Luckily the rain had faded to a drizzle by the time that we got up, and it stopped completelyContinue reading “A walk in the woods”
Taxing day
Today’s guest picture is another from America. Mary Jane from New York sent me this impressive array of dogs in the charge of professional dog walkers. They would have to pay me a lot to do that job. We had another cold, grey day here today with the temperature not getting above 5°C. It isContinue reading “Taxing day”
A good block
Today’s guest picture comes from my brother Andrew who did some bird spotting in the centre of Derby today. It was another pretty dreich day here when we got up, and it wasn’t a great surprise considering some more overnight rain, that I found Mary Jo’s rain gauge pretty well full to the brim whenContinue reading “A good block”
Winter draws on
Today’s guest picture shows that Tony’s dog likes his East Wemyss sunsets as much as Laura likes her Lake Michigan ones. Although my posts usually take the form of a daily diary, I am starting this post with something that didn’t happen today and which I didn’t see. Our friend Gavin send me some picturesContinue reading “Winter draws on”
Early birds
Today’s guest picture comes from our son Tony, it was taken yesterday and once again goes to prove that while we may be having miserably grey days here, East Wemyss is still the sunshine capital of the known world. There was a tremendous hailstorm here in the night but it was mercifully short and byContinue reading “Early birds”
Into the woods
Today’s guest picture comes from my Somerset correspondent, Venetia. She felt that as I had been a bit lacking of flying birds recently, she should help me out. She visited RSPB West Sedgmoor on Saturday and saw a great many teal. My first picture of the day was taken very early in the morning indeed. Continue reading “Into the woods”
Walking the walk
Today’s guest picture comes from Stephen, my Australian correspondent. He says that it is easy to see the effects of the bush fires raging in the Blue Mountains while walking the streets of Sydney, especially as the sun comes up behind the haze at dawn. We were hoping for some sun here today and weContinue reading “Walking the walk”
Hanging around
Today’s guest picture comes from our son Tony’s partner Marianne. She shared her enjoyment of a view over the river Tay at Perth with some jackdaws. I realised when I came to put this post together that I had included far too many pictures in it by accident so I apologise in advance and recommendContinue reading “Hanging around”
