Monday walk

Lovely sunshine today, but it's blowing a gale.  This morning the dogs and I set off on one of our favourite walks around the huge double-sized field, just south of the village.  It was a bit of a struggle with the wind.  In fact we were buffeted around the field rather than walked!

There are some long stretches of lovely old stone walls around the perimeter of the field.  And, as always, fabulous views across the Firth of Forth, where the wind was whipping up foam crested waves, and the best bit - snowdrops through the woods.  Actually, there was another really good thing - the song of the skylark, high in the blue above.

Early morning light

There have been some cracking early morning skies this week.  The sunrise has generated a strong rose gold light which has been picked up not only in the clouds but also through the silver-white grasses around the edge of the golf course. I always marvel at the clouds.  Constantly changing, formations that have never been seen before, never to be seen again.  

In a vase on Monday - colour

The intense colours in my vase this week come from nasturtiums, sweetpeas and a single glorious zinnia! Their beauty and love of life speak for themselves and need no further words from me! Enjoy!

(Not) in a vase on Monday!

The challenge this week, set by Cathy at  https://ramblinginthegarden.wordpress.com to celebrate five years of In a Vase on Monday, was to offer (Not) in a vase on Monday!  So here is my interpretation of that idea with one of my Plant Belles, which I tend to use for things I find and enjoy.  I weave bits and pieces through the metal ribs and keep them until they fall apart, or something even better turns up!  Lichen covered twigs, branches of larch with tiny cones, seed heads, twisted heather stems, anything and everything that has form and beauty.
