This week it’s back to school for me. It’s my GCSE year so expect less blogging as my exams get closer and close.
Autumn is definitely on its way, it was dark by just after 8pm last night and the mornings are colder.
One sign that Autumn is coming on my Local Patch is the geese return. Each morning and evening they fly low over my house.
In the evening they settle in the nearby fields where they chatter amongst themselves as the sun sets.
I’ll know Autumn has truly arrived once the Redwings and Fieldfares start arriving and the Swallows have left..

Amazing colours in those shots Alex. Love the motion blurred geese too. Still got the swallows in my local patch but I’m guessing it won’t be long before the great switch over. Good luck with your final year of GCSE by the way.

Thanks, I liked the blurred one too, normally something I would delete, but there was something about it I liked.
