Hazy start this morning has been followed by a hazy day. Happy hump day BlueSky.

Bright misty morning over the Cree valley. The fields are dew covered and green, the tide in the estuary is out. You can't see Cairnsmore.

The farmer has installed a fence, single strand with insulators so I assume electric? I'm not sure if it's to keep me out or the brassicas in. Hope your day is more promising than mine BlueSky.

Leafy crop growing in the field next door, the valley is grassy. The sky is overcast with clouds all the way down. The distant hills are nowhere to be seen.

back to work after two weeks away from it all. My laptop was very unhappy about being switched back on this morning. Lovely to see that absolutely nothing has improved with the world after two weeks of me ignoring it. I hope you have a great week BlueSky.

Blues skies over the Cree valley this morning. The green growth in the field next door is leafy and the plants in the rockery are unkempt and dew covered.

My mom and stepdad are from the same diaspora group as Zohran Mamdani’s dad (same like “my stepdad was kicked out of the same town and knows some of his classmates”) and apparently the New York Times doesn’t understand how diaspora works, so I am going to tell you a little about my mom’s people!

Happy Friday everyone. TIL that on the other side of the river they bail the silage rather than trailer it away.

Sunshine briefly breaks through the clouds in the Cree valley. In the foreground is the green roof of my neighbors sheds. The estuary is near the top of the tide and beyond you can see the fields and buildings of the other farmer. There may even be rain falling on the uplands beyond.

The Tay. I think about 1.2km wide here, the narrowest point and where the tide is fastest. You can hear a bull roaring in the fields in Fife and deer swim the river here.

Looking across the Tay Estuary. Water and sky are blue. Low rises of Fife visible round to Kinshaldy.

Cool and still start to the day here in the Cree valley. I expect it will be just as warm and sunny later as it was yesterday. Have a good one BlueSky, nearly there.

Cairnsmore under a cap of cloud this morning, the fields in the valley have been mowed and are light green. I have no idea what's growing in the field next to me but it's leafy.

Rain in the distance today, no doubt we'll get our share. Nice and cool but I've still got the doors open. Happy hump day BlueSky.

Rain clouds obscure the hills this morning. They've been cutting the grass fields and you can just make out the lighter shades of green between the hedges. Something leafy grows in the field in the immediate foreground.

It's pleasantly warm here with no direct sunshine. I've a busy week before the holidays begin in earnest. Taking time off just isn't something my employer seems geared up for in my case. I fully predict something will go horribly wrong as soon as I'm away from my laptop.

Bright but cloudy day over the Cree valley. Green fields and they've started cutting the grass down on the flood plain.

The sun poised above Cairnsmore lights up the Cree valley. Cirrocumulus clouds partially obscure the blue sky with distant haze. The field next door is a bit scratchy but definitely more green than yellow now.some nettles are visible tucked up against the wall in the foreground and just a touch of some purple flowers in the rockery at the bottom left.
