A week ago my bird group when out into the fog however
undaunted we were sure we would find birds.
We walked up a lane towards Helen’s Tower so today I am showing you half
of the shots and tomorrow you will see the rest of them. At the beginning we noticed someone had put bird
seed on the path and we stood for ages watching all the Tits, Finches and
Robins coming down to feed.
Our three bird musketeers walking into the fog!
You can see there are still leaves,
in fact some green
leaves on the Beech trees still.
We
also found some lovely Fungi.
Now
this fence does look a bit uninteresting.
The orange tubing was on top of wire so the horses would not hurt
themselves. However if you look, at my
blog tomorrow, you will see what I saw in the tubing!!!
I
liked this bit of straw attached to the barbed wire.
These
are two of the horses but again, if you visit tomorrow you will see the shots I
was trying to get with the horses.
This is a new wall that they have built fronting a car park at the oldest Inn in Ireland. it is a tiny village 2 miles from my home called Crawfordsburn.
Lastly
a lovely gate again in the Crawfordsburn village.
I hope you enjoyed this mixture of shots today and I am linking this post to
Thank you for visiting and also to those who leave comments
Better shots than I would have expected from a murky day.
ReplyDeletewhen I think of fences I think of wood, strength, but some people will use just about anything and make it work!! a beautiful variety of images today, I really liked the last gate!!!
ReplyDeleteThe stone fence is wonderful!
ReplyDeleteGreat pictures, Margaret. I can't even pick my favorite, but the first one is really outstanding.

Beautiful series of photographs Margaret.

Best regards, Irma
So lovely! Thanks for sharing your beautiful walk.
ReplyDeleteMargaret, this is such a gorgeous series of photos!
ReplyDeleteI love the soft mystery of fog. And those funghi are stunning.
ReplyDeleteYou're right, it's a good week for fog. I particularly like the monochrome.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pictures! Hard to pick a favorite one all of them are so pretty. We still have leaves on the trees in my town, and some of them are green too.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful line-up of photos - you outdid yourself! Thank you for sharing these.
ReplyDeleteOutstanding post today. Loved that first shot and how it was framed. Some great fences and gates, neat horses, lovely leaves and fabulous fungi. Very enjoyable visit.
ReplyDeleteHi Margaret,
ReplyDeleteThese are beautiful scenes and I thank you for sharing them with all of us.
I love the Ivy-Framed picture the most, followed by the ones of the fog, if I may be permitted picking favorites.
The horses are very happy looking - in my opinion!
The orange tube fence has given me some ideas for feeding the dogs' water-bowl in the pen, from upstairs deck.
The Collie makes my Bobtail a bit jealous, or so claims Shaggy :)
Peace :)
wow fantastic shots and fences

ReplyDeleteI love that fungi... And the horses. I like seeing the fence covered.
ReplyDeleteWhat a delightful 'tour' you shared today! Lovely framing around your first image. I enjoyed all the birds, fences, and horses. How nice of those men to distribute bird seed. :)

A beautiful walk! Just beautiful! Love the trees, the birds, the horses...the fungi! It's all so gorgeous! And that fence at the oldest Inn is wonderful!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great walk/hike you all had. I love FOG ---and your pictures are terrific... Love it when people leave seed and feeders along the way for the birds... Looks like there is some Fall still hanging on in your area. Our Fall is almost GONE.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your beautiful hike....
Hugs,
Betsy
