Yellow and green grass fields are bordered by low walls made of gray stone. The scene is dotted with low trees and shrubs, and there is a glimpse of water in the top left. The whole scene rests under a moody gray-ish sky.

Here is my #WallsOnWednesday offering. I loved these low stone walls that bisect so many fields in #Ireland. #photography #ECK

Looking down on the tree tops from Djouce Mountain in Co Wicklow, Ireland. A dozen different shades of colour. A small path can be seen winding through the trees.

Looks like an Autumn scene but this was last Sunday morning.

A close-up of the face of a Fox Squirrel, its fur varying from reddish-brown to grayish brown, with very small, rounded ears, a striking large, brown eye, and black whiskers surrounding its snout. Visible around the squirrel's face are the thin, narrow leafless branches of the tree it is in, and behind it is they clear blue sky of a cold but very sunny later winter's day.

A dog lying on a rug and chewing a wooden stick. It’s the third she’s had this week. It makes a mess but I still let her do it.

A tall, leafless tree stands in the center, surrounded by other bare trees. The view looks up from below to the top of its crown. The thick trunk is covered with ivy. The sky behind it is clear and blue.

A sharply focused Eurasian magpie stands alert on a weathered tree stump, its glossy black head and back contrasting with a bright white shoulder and belly. The bird’s pale grey bill and dark, watchful eye are turned slightly to the side, giving it an inquisitive expression. Soft green foliage blurs into the background, isolating the magpie’s striking black-and-white plumage while a few blades of grass sprout from the textured stump beneath its feet.

Good morning. Today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme is #Corvidae any bird of the Corvid family. The alt is #LongNecks any bird with a long neck. Good luck. #birds #photography #ECK

Fishing rods are designed
to be weak enough that
they will snap in
half if someone accidentally
hooks a dolphin.

An old tree, some more trees in the background. Melting snow, white garden furniture, pale Yellow stone building. Mostly clear sky.

Colourful sky after the sun has disappeared in the horizon, snow, rocks, reeds, a pier and frozen sea.

Is sunset over when the sun goes down?

A house and other buildings near hills in a field. Tall grasses fill the foreground with a tree on the left near a house. Other buildings reach to the right. The hills are close behind the buildings.
