A photo of the day thread

We were up there last Sunday, along with dozens of other people. We've done it, but we didn't like the town centre at all.
I wasn't keen on the town either, some of the locals were interesting but that was about it 👍
 
Instant lake. Our gaff is behind the palm trees by the biggest pole.

An early evening stroll along the South Tyne riverbank behind our tiny village here in SW Northumberland. Rather cool and overcast with a threat of rain, a few returning Swallows following the river West nearly 50 counted in an hours birding but my highlight was watching a female Otter diving and hunting fish. Spring has certainly arrived here in the North Pennines.

Fantastic coastal walk today to a small bothy on the east side of Islay. We got there just as the heavens opened, this gave us some nice atmospheric views.
We also saw a golden eagle (sorry no pics!) which is always nice. Back to glorious sunshine on the same way back.

Can just see the Calmac ferry heading to the mainland.

Camping at the same place as the previous night - a small sign requests you stay no longer than 3 nights which seems very fair. We have it to ourselves again, in fact, we have seen nobody since yesterday!

Just need to put the tarpaulin and strapping on, then ready for the 543 mile drive to where the wood-burning stove is.
Still not sure whether this is beneficial from a C02 saving point of view!
Probably not 🤔

So long as you plant trees to replace these ones you cut down, all is good 😀

Excellent! Then you are saved my friend, well done 😀
There was a reason that tree was cut up by the way.
Here it is overhanging our neighbour’s house after high winds December 2023. 😳
We were away at the time and trying to arrange a tree surgeon at Christmas time was not easy!

Now that it is so easy to upload photo's from phones, tablets and PC's to the site. I thought I'd start a photo of the day thread. Rules are simple.

You can post any photo here as long as it was taken by you in the last 24 hours.

I'll start with a picture taken on the long walk to my office this morning.
