Frosty morning walk

Hello people, well another of our autumns is officially over with the first day of winter, today. We have been having some frosty mornings. These are from the weekend.

Did you say walk? ( Nokia Lumia 530 )

 

I’m still flat our editing and improving Taniel every day. I have 50 ‘chapters’ on Wattpad now, and already am a third of the way towards reaching my next 1000 reads!  (1.35k reads so far)  I am getting useful feedback from my voting readers. Wattpad’s reader engagement graphs are also revealing – I can see the chapters that do not hold a reader’s attention, particularly one where some readers must think adding a dragon’s POV a step too far, for then I lose them.

A typical autumn walk

Here is a slideshow of my walk with Vika this morning. I took 119 photos with the Nikon D3000 DSLR. I’m showing you seventeen.
If you want to see any of the images larger, simply pause the slideshow, right click, and select ‘view image’. I’ve kept the quality down since there are so many.

Seeing the owl is becoming typical. Apparently owls will intermittently return to the same roosts for several years. Once the leaves fall from the oak, I suppose it will seek a better place. This one was staring pretty intently at Vika, as if sizing her up for its next meal. They can take down quite big prey and would tackle Vika quite easily! Vika had her tail between her legs, so maybe she knew it was up there … or she maybe she saw a cat.

Thanks for looking, have a nice day.
