Week 10

I have missed a couple of week’s posts due to a bout of illness. But back on track, so we are going to Ballydevitt Cottage in County Londonderry . I have tried to find some history about this small cottage,without success.

I talked to a local couple but they are only a few years in the area, so at some point I will go back and see if I can get some information about it’s history.

This is another Irish photo rally point, it’s in Aghadowey, County Londonderry.

I’m going to add the coordinates which you can copy to Google maps and go to street view to see the location.

55. 03506100° – 6.64184700°

Have a great weekend and take care.

Great Black-backed gull. First winter plumage. These gulls are the largest gull we get in the UK and Ireland. At a height of 64-78 cm and a wingspan of 150 – 165 cm. These gulls are as large has most geese.

Have a good day,

Tones of autumn

The autumn/fall colours are starting to show or in B & W the range of tones on a plant has increased. The trees are just starting to turn except the horse chestnut which is one of the first to show its winter colours. No idea what this plant is but the range of colour/tones is good.

Thank you for viewing.
