A Witch's Hat

 

I spotted this flower in a recent Garden Centre visit and thought it looked like a Witch's Hat. I didn't see her nearby though! It's a Purple and White Viola.

The Hielanman's Umbrella

 

This is the Hielanman's Umbrella in Glasgow. You can read about it HERE. It's part of Glasgow Central Station. It was a sunny and rainy day in Glasgow when I took these back in March. I hadn't spotted the gull in the second photo until I was cropping it!

First Butterfly Of 2026

 

This is the first Butterfly of the year. I saw it a few weeks ago when I was on the school run. It was a rather nice day and I saw it flying about then it rested near my car and got a good photo. It's a Peacock Butterfly.

Caturday: Cleo's Close Up

 

This is Cleo, my wee black cat with the white bib. She was happy for me to take this close up photo of her. She really is the most photogenic cat in our house!

A Happy Pigeon

 

We spotted this Pigeon on a short walk recently. I had taken seeds with me and fed it. I tried to capture the lovely colours on its neck.

Ikea Glasgow View

We were in Ikea recently and grabbed lunch. They do nice Plant Based Meatballs and unlimited coffees, so I'm in lol. I was looking out the window and really liked the view of the hills in the background. 

Pinky

 

This is a Pink Daisy (Bellis perennis). I spotted it in a garden centre and really liked the texture and colour.

They Are Everywhere

 

You know Spring is here when you see the Crocuses. What is the plural of Crocus? Crocuses or Croci? These are the purple and white ones.

A Grand View

 

Another photo from The National Museum of Scotland in Edinburgh. I really liked the inside of the building, very grand indeed. 

A Sunny Hoverfly

 

This is an oldie! This hoverfly was enjoying the sunshine!

Caturday: Cali Up The Tree

 

Cali was happy to be at the top of the cat tree. The human kitten was annoying her so she went up high! Trying to teach the human kitten how to be around cats. She gets super excited around them!

One Happy Crow

 

This crow was happy to see me. When I visit the pond I always put seeds down for the crows. I also put the duck food pellets at the edge of the water for them too. Crows are awesome.

A Wee Weevil

 

Isn't this little weevil lovely? Check out the colours! Stunning.

Scarlet Elf Cup

 

Scarlet Elf Cups here. I have posted a few of these over the years. I sadly missed them this year due to my injury. They are lovely bold red mushrooms and edible too!

Ready To Jump

 

This Ringed Teal was ready to jump back into the water, though there is something he isn't sure about. Maybe waiting for me to take the photo?

Oystercatcher

 

This is an Oystercatcher. The name would imply they are found near the water and not inland. I live in Central Scotland nowhere near the coast but we have plenty Oystercatchers here. I remember talking to another walker and he commented on this fact too! I love seeing them and really must get more photos.

Interesting Texture

 

I really liked the texture and pattern on this tree. I am not entirely sure what type of tree is it, anyone know?

Caturday: Cleo On The Fridge

 

Part of the Cats On The Fridge Series. Stitch appeared in January HERE! Cleo decided to go up on the fridge too. Isn't she just a little cutie pie!

Patterns In The Sky

A lovely pattern of clouds and can you spot the moon too?

A Happy Couple

 

One from last summer. A pair of Damselflies mating! A happy couple indeed!!

It's April!

 

Happy April everyone! Today I am 4 months post op and doing really well considering how bad my injury was. Sadly, the weather isn't complying, I don't think it knows we are in Spring!

This is Greater Stitchwort (Stellaria holostea).
