Walked today.
High tide.
The Gulls were out on the sea.
Very sad sight. A dead grey seal. I reported it later to Scottish Marine Animal Strandings Scheme .
Back home. My Daily Sketch today was a Pine Cone.
Then I began a Tawny Owl.
The DP was out early this morning and captured a Bull Finch.
Munching on Pussy Willow. We have a Pussy Willow, but sadly this was not ours. Perhaps one day we can add them to our bird count. I have never seen one.
Watching yet another Waking the Dead this evening. Regular checks on the Aurora which sadly has not appeared despite all the forecasts.
Back tomorrow.

The Bull Finch is a beautiful picture. The dead seal not so, poor thing.
Your drawings are inspiring me to have a go at sketching one thing a day. Maybe I will down tools for a while in the garden and find something to draw. Think I only have an HB pencil with me here though.
A belated Happy Birthday and I’m very sorry I missed it.
So sad to see the seal :(
Aa Bullfinch is one bird that I have never seen in the wild, likewise a Yellow Hammer.
Like the sketching, used to do a lot but not now, should get it out again.

The shades of blue in the first photograph are stunning. X
