When daydreaming is real 🕊️ ….
Distance mountains have trees and mist hugging its perimeter as the morning sky is dappled with violet hues.

Guten Morgen 🍂
Ruhige Herbstlandschaft mit perfekter Spiegelung eines bunten Waldstreifens in einem tiefblauen See unter klarem, hellblauem Himmel. Die Bäume am Ufer zeigen goldene, braune und grüne Herbstfarben, die fast symmetrisch auf der Wasseroberfläche reflektiert werden.

I spotted this harlequin ladybird on our walk yesterday. It’s a variation called f. Conspicua.

I made an early start yesterday leaving the house around 3.30am to head over to RSPB Bempton Cliffs to see what was around.
And I managed to bag myself a Lifer ✅, which was a Pallas's Leaf Warbler, making the early start worthwhile.

I just love the word 'quashed'.

Well done SWT! I hope other WTs will take similar challenges.

A forest path covered in fallen leaves during autumn, with tall trees on both sides. The low sun shines brightly through the trees, casting long shadows across the path and creating a warm, golden glow in the scene.

A Short-eared Owl spreads its wings as it tries to pull up and away from a Northern Harrier whose talons grasp desperately at the owl’s tail feathers.
