jackson 301 Posted September 20, 2013 Report Share Posted September 20, 2013 Compo, how absolutely beautiful what you have done with your photos: made them into a Gallery - wish I was as clever. How kind of you to put these images on 'Nottstalgia'. My favourites amongst your collection are: 'The Fernery' 'Autumn Colours Just Beginning To Show' 'Light in the Wood' (Even the one: 'Wood Pigeon Deterrent' is so unusual and beautiful - the colours sing.)

Compo 10,328 Posted September 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 23, 2013 The Swedish Whitebeam are heavily loaded with berries this year. Sign of a bad winter to come? NO! it's a sign of a good summer just past :D Quote Link to post Share on other sites
poohbear 1,360 Posted September 23, 2013 Report Share Posted September 23, 2013 The Swedish Whitebeam are heavily loaded with berries this year. Sign of a bad winter to come? NO! it's a sign of a good summer just past :D Thank God somebody else on the planet realizes that a heavy berry crop reflects a bountiful spring and summer. The times I've got into arguments with so called intelligent people who think for some peculiar reason that holly bushes can fortell what sort of a winter is round the corner. How plants have acquired this ability to read the future would even confuse H G Wells. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Compo 10,328 Posted September 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 23, 2013 Like "The cows are lying down, it's going to rain". Well again, no; they are lying down to take the weight of a belly full of grass off their feet. A full stomach in a cow can easily weigh 50kgs or more. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
StephenFord 866 Posted September 23, 2013 Report Share Posted September 23, 2013 But isn't it obvious? - they lie down to keep a patch of ground dry under them! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
