First job of the day is to walk the dog, on stepping out side even though it is still mild the wind had got up and I could see we had not long had some rain.

I grabbed my camera and binoculars just in case we had some winter visitors flying in, most of the birds on the berries appeared to be Blackbirds but no sign of any Redwings or Fieldfares.

Passing some of the freshly ploughed fields I could see that a lot of the trees had shed their leaves overnight  and this gave me a clue as to why there were no winter birds and the leaves were lying north-east of the lone Oak in a field which told me the wind had come from the South West and the reason it was still mild.

After feeding the dog, and putting out food for the birds in the garden it was mostly a day spent inside due to the heavy rain showers.

I was able to catch up on a few things but kept looking out for a break to get out with the camera as luck would have it I managed to get before Sunset and take some shots of the Fenland sky, usually very dramatic after rain I found todays to be very calming with the Aircraft flying to west and the sun catching the vapour trails.
