The Return of the Snowdrops…
It is always nice to see the snowdrops breaking through. The end of the winter is coming thank goodness!

The Big Chicken is back!!!
(well, afternoon in Scotland)
This is Mrs Black Chicken. She sits and waits for us when we take the dog for a walk in the morning. Many of the good people of Banff and Macduff feed the birds which probably explains why Mrs Black Chicken is a bit on the portly size…

The early bird catches the worm!
It’s difficult to hold a camera in one hand and, at the same time, take photographs of the chicken sitting on your other hand! The Chicken will NOT sit still!
At last! I got images of the really BIG chicken!!!
Happy New Year Everyone!

More Photoshop Neural Filter tomfoolery (probably a bit over the top).
A very strange plant given the Photoshop Neural Filter treatment…very strange.
I’ve never seen anything like this before…
Don’t you just wish the British Conservative Party would just shrivel up and disintegrate (and NEVER come back!)
They seem to come in all shapes and sizes
Just when I thought fungus (fungi?) season was over…
These chickens just get everywhere!
It’s a little bit damp here in Banff (or 57,39.9818N 2,32.2851W) this morning.
GPS on the camera. Whatever next? Google Maps not so happy with the Lat and Long numbers however.
The Decibel or dB is not a unit, it is a ratio and here we see a small and large mushroom and, if we had the time and energy, we could work out the ratio between the big and little mushroom. I’m thinking about a 10 to 1 ratio here: 10:1 but I stand to be corrected. Ultimately…who cares!!!
This unruly little chicken just won’t stay put!
Somebody nibbled my leaf!
…about the same intelligence level as Liz Truss (apologies to conkers everywhere)…
If I knew more about botany, I would know what this strange thing is!
A spot of Photoshop neural filter skulduggery…
