Part 3 Changing Colours of Autumn Leaves.

Following on from my last post of the autumnal colours in my own garden, here we are still with leaves changing colours. They are still so beautiful and the colours still capture the eye.

Before I got the camera out a young deer passed through ,maybe next time I will get it on camera.

Now come and walk through our local woods with me as I did yesterday morning before the shower of snow in afternoon.

Hillwalking on Ben Vrackie

It was a wonderful day, if a bit chilly but that’s the price you have to pay for a nice clear day. Just a perfect hill walkers day.

You can see more photos on the Trowels forum and read more about Ben Vrackie here.

Come and enjoy our walk

After our walk we enjoyed a welcome cup of tea at Hettie’s Tearoom in Pitlochry. The one I had was Berrytastic Baby and it was so good that I bought some to take home. I resisted the freshly baked scones but I am told that they are very tasty!
