Discarded T-Rex
As we came back from our walk last night in the dark something freaked Daisy out. Tonight on a walk with Feisty we found the cause – a discarded T-Rex. Hard rubbish collections are about to start so there are bound to be more gems around.

Kilsyth Red Flowering Gum
Red flowering gum, corymbia ficifolia, flowers found in Kilsyth on an early evening dogwalk. When they are in full flower the tree appears almost completely red, something that always impressed Nan – a wonderful way to remember her.

Santa and Reindeer 2024
Dog-walking at this time of year is a good opportunity to see the Christmas lights. I’m not too sure of the family appropriate nature of this display though! The poor reindeer seems to be having a tough day at work.
