Good morning fellow Mastos and hello Monday. Today we have a meeting with the sales manager of a house builders and a rental to view before a long drive home. Should be "fun". Hopefully your day will be better than ours looks! Take care, have fun, stay safe. Or else! 😉 Have a great Monday.

Today's random photo is from yesterday and I think these are called Sea Pinks. These were shot on Hopeman beach.

I invariably think "I'm going to let the goslings loose, sit with them to keep them safe from crows, and do some writing" and then I do not do any writing.

(Image shows some goslings exploring a pond).

@solar_chase Although I've never raised a gosling, I can confirm your final sentence! Our local canal banks turn green at this time of year! 😉

Good morning fellow Mastos and hello Sunday. Today is a day of rest in the house hunting safari, but no doubt MrsD will deem it necessary to walk the length and breadth of Scotland before lunch!

Have a great and peaceful day everyone, have fun with lots of laughter. Stay safe.

Today's photo is from yesterday and is a Grey Heron catching small fish, by the remains of the "Old" New Bridge on the River Lossie. There's was a new New Bridge built further downstream a couple of years ago.

@Steampunk_Prof Sounds like a busy day. We've been all over today, Wesley has been on four or five different beaches! He's happy.

Also, is this your plant? Bittersweet Nightshade?

@Steampunk_Prof It's probably one of the same family. I think, if I remember correctly, tomato and potato are both in the nightshade family.
