Pottering Around

Today has been a lovely autumn day.  A crisp start and clear skies and sunshine that is still quite warm as the day goes on. 

This morning brought the first of the Redwings. Five of them in the Yew tree in the garden.  Clare and I went over to Knowle to have a wander around the shops.  We walked the quarter mile down to the locks to see what was around.  A pair of Buzzards, a flock of Long Tailed Tits, a pair of Wrens as well as the usual Black Headed Gulls, Pigeons, Magpies and Crows.  Clare saw a Kingfisher which I missed.  I heard it but was too slow. 

Despite our leisurely day it has flown by!
