Scottish Game Fair 2025

We went to the Scottish Game Fair at the start of July. Here are a few photos from the day.

A good day was had by all!

Pied Wagtail

 

This bird is a Pied Wagtail. It is a cute little thing.

A Hungry Fledgling

 

This young Gull was looking for some food. The parents were near by on the rooftop watching it. It's a cute and fluffy little one.

Caturday: Jethro Enjoying The New Scratcher

 

Jethro was enjoying the new scratcher I bought. It was a good place to sit.

Enjoying The Sun

 

I took this at the start of summer! This Damselfly was enjoying the sunshine.

Capybaras

 

More from Yorkshire Wildlife Park. A few Capybaras. These animals are so cute.

I took this photo in 2022 and had the intention to post it then for Signs! I was at the same place on Saturday and it is still there so that reminded me to post it today! Number 29!

Shelter For Fairies

 

I thought these mushrooms looked like the ideal shelter for fairies! I have no idea what type they are. Google is giving me a few answers!

A Sunny Crow

Not posted a crow in a while.

 This is a crow from the pond. I feed them all the time and they are great friends to have.

Ring-Tailed Lemurs

 

We saw these Lemurs at Yorkshire Wildlife Park. The Lemurs are in an enclosure and you can walk around it while they run about. They walked right passed us and my daughter was excited to see them. 

Caturday: Abby Is Having Sweet Dreams

 

This is Abby fast alseep, hopefully having sweet dreams! She is my oldest cat and will be 17 in January. She is a great cat and so affectionate and very loving. She likes a good chat and she will purr if you look at her. She loves to sit on lap all the time. 

Red Panda

 

More from Yorkshire Wildlife Park. We were lucky to see this Red Panda at feeding time. My daughter really likes Red Pandas.

Big Kid Circus 2025

We went to see the Circus recently. It's called Big Kid Circus. I hadn't been to see the circus since in late 1980s and this was the first time for my daughter at the circus.

We all really enjoyed it and it was so well done. I was impressed with the stunts and the team worked really hard. If they come here next year we will definitely be going again. Well done Big Kid Circus.

I was at a birthday party with my daughter at an animal park and I saw this sign in the cafe. I thought it was sweet and cute!

Autumn Colours

 

Aren't Autumn colours amazing?

X Marks The Spot

 

These Giraffes were at Yorkshire Wildlife Park. We went there at the end of July. I have plenty more photos to post!

Beautiful Babies

 

Spotted these 2 baby ducks when I was walking along the canal recently. They are so cute.

Caturday: With Cleo

 

This is Cleo, one of my newer cats. She is a little darling and has lovely eyes.

Sharing

These 2 birds were sharing the seeds I put down for them. The one on the left is a Blue Tit and the right is a Robin.

Autumn Is Around The Corner

Bill over at: Out of his Mind's Eye posted a few days ago about Just a Hint Of Fall. So I had a look and saw this yesterday when I was picking my daughter up from school.

I love all the autumn colours!

Signs 27 August 2025: Polite Graffiti

Linking to Tom's Signs: https://backroadstraveller.blogspot.com/ 

The text says: "Fix This Light Pls xxx". At least they said please! Pls is short for please. It was in an underpass that can get dark at times if the lights aren't working.

Slowly Creeping Along

 

This little beetle was creeping along the pavement and ran in front of me. I took a photo then made sure it made it safely to the other side!

A Grand Reflection

 

I was in a restaurant in Glasgow for a drink while it was heavy rain outside and I noticed the reflection of the chandelier on the table. I thought it was so cool!

Happy Crane Flies

 

I am sure these 2 crane flies are happy! 

Caturday: Friend's New Cat

 

This is my friend's new cat. She is a pure breed Maine Coon. She is such a lovely girl.

Enjoying The Seeds

 

This Great Tit was enjoying the seeds I put down for him on the log.

Huh?

 

I think this sheep had that "Huh?" look about it.

I really liked this, it reads "Good planets are hard to find." Next to the recycling logo. It was on the back of a can of Sparkling Water I bought. 

Colourful Coral

 

I saw this coral at Sea Life in Loch Lomond, I really liked the colours.

A Big Bee!

 

This bee needed a little boost, so I lifted it up and put it onto a flower. It was quite big!

Ice Cream Treat

 

A dropped ice cream was food for this wasp!
