Another glorious autumn day here. Blue skies and golden sunshine and not too cold. Perfect!

Same here, glorious autumn day. Shows well here from the SW coastal path to the west of West Bay. There was a keen wind coming in off the sea and the birds were having great trouble doing anything other than going with it!

Lovely pictures Wendy

I will join the sunny day people, and say we have a sunny day but a little windy at the moment. o:)

Found a white butterfly fluttering around the garden this afternoon. He must be robust enough to cope with the colder weather.

The weather is supposed to be really sunny, and nice in our area this weekend. o:)

I think a trip to a reserve is in order for a walk about to see the dragonflies and the Damselflies before they disappear for the year. o:)o:)

Thanks for the kind comments on my photos, I have to say that the weather really helps!

This morning it is damp underfoot, but glorious blue sky and sunshine again. No birds venturing in though.....:-C

It did warm up! Temp here is currently 18C, a gentle breeze and long sunny spells. Shows well on the picture from my local patch.

Hi Wendy

It is beautiful here too at the moment. It is a day for a walk or a relax in the Garden. o:):-O

I look at Old Faithful most days, Bea and not just to see it erupting! I'm interested as much in the weather and, as you say, earlier in the week it was very warm, this morning (their time) there is the first snow on the ground! It was great to see the great snow drifts through the winter too, plus the wildlife that wanders by from time to time. Have you noticed that the temperature info has been a bit haywire over the last few weeks? Several days it has indicated 0F which is -18C!!!! People were there in shirt sleeves and shorts....;)

Have you ever looked at the Mount St Helens website? That's fascinating for the weather too. Unfortunatley, the camera is otfen not showin anything because of the poor weather. Worth a vist though.....the full sized Java refreshed view is amazing in good weather, but it is a massive file....don't go there without boradband! http://www.fs.fed.us/gpnf/volcanocams/msh/

I look in most days too Wendy, its fascinating to see the weather conditions, the cloud formations and the beautiflul sunrises. Yes, the temp does seem a bit haywire at times, I've noticed that the watchers' clothing doesn't always seem appropriate to the recorded temp.

The only wildlife I've noticed have been bison earlier this year. I'll have a look at the Mt St Helens cam, that might goe onto my favourites too.

Yesterday and today have been more perfection. Warm sunshine, deep blue, cloudless skies, and calm. Just lovely.

Yet another glorious day here too. ;)

This was sunrise this morning with some of the Starling gang gathering on next door's roof in anticipation of breakfast!
