View down the central tiled path of a glasshouse. It is one of two restored traditional, kitchen garden glasshouses at the Florence Court estate in Fermanagh. They have been built on the footprints of the original kitchen garden glasshouses, which were lost after the gardens fell into disrepair post-World War 2. There are wooden planters on both sides of the aisle, with plants growing in them. Against a whitewashed brick wall on the right there is also a large pot with a small tree in it, a folded up table and two metal chairs. Blue sky can be seen through the glass windows of the roof. There are four ceiling lamps in metal, industrial style shades running along the glasshouse below the roof. The whole glasshouse is brightly lit by the sun.

View up into a bare tree. The grey, wrinkled bark is lit by the sun, as are the clumps of bright green moss growing on the surface of the trunk and branches. Those branches extend outwards from the upper reaches of the tree against a background of bright blue sky with some white, cumulus clouds.

A tarmac road leading off into the distance. There is neatly cropped grass on either side of it. On the right hand side, a metal fence separates this grass verge from pasture. There are two bare trees in this pasture, their branches silhouetted against the sky. On the left, there is woodland running alongside the grass verge. It curves gently around to the right in the distance and ultimately runs across the horizon, following the line of the road which is out of sight at that point. The sky above is blue with some large clouds, both white and grey.

View up into the moss covered branches of a magnolia tree. The green moss is illuminated in places by the sun. The tree is full of blossom. Towards the top left of the picture, the sun is shining through the flowers. There are shrubs in the background, mostly hidden by the magnolia tree's lower branches and a glimpse of bright green, neatly mowed grass at the bottom of the frame.

A low, ruined castle wall with neatly cropped grass in the foreground. There is a stone archway in the centre of the picture. Behind this is a lake and then more land, with a line of trees along its shore. There is a small boat on the lake, which is visible through the opening in the arch. The sky above is grey and distant hills, also grey and hazy, can be seen across the horizon beyond the trees.

A tree in parkland at a National Trust estate. There is ivy growing up its trunk from the base, although it stops halfway up. Its larger branches have been sawn off, whether because of storm damage or because it has died isn't clear. There are some thin branches remaining, some of which are growing from the edges of its stumps. It is growing from a raised mound, which is covered in vegetation- what looks to be bramble or something with a similar growth pattern. Around it is grassland with a fence in the background and some other trees, which are bare and haven't been lopped. The sky above is clear with some light cloud. The image is black and white.

Put on the kettle as there’s a lot in there from growing up on the border during the Troubles to admitting being awestruck over a fellow Leitrimer. Thanks to all who’ve supported me over the years, and to Jillian and Pete for letting me at it.

Black and white photo of a small, round stone tower at the corner of two stone walls. The top of the tower is missing and the walls are only the lower remnants of a once larger structure. There is an arched doorway in the centre of the tower wall and the interior is dark so that the opening is just black and rather sinister looking. Sloping grass in the foreground. Cloudy but fairly light sky above.

Sunset. Interspersed bands of grey cloud, blue sky, and golden sunlit sky. The sun is low, just above the horizon. In the foreground, a field with a clump of bare trees silhouetted against the sky on the left.

A robin seen in side profile, beak pointing to the left of the frame. It is perched on an icy concrete fencepost and its beak is open. The background is out of focus but predominantly white with some darkers patches, indicative of the heavy freeze that we were in at the time.

I don't know what this robin was shouting about but it was probably something to do with how cold its feet were.

Zoom in on a distant common buzzard perched at the top of a tree. There are thin branches and twigs below it and in the background, silhouetted against the pale grey sky. A few out-of-focus leaves in the bottom right corner.

Today's Bird of the Day theme: "Side View".

I'm going with this buzzard in the field next to us a couple of years ago. They're regular visitors here but they usually get mobbed by the local hooded crows.

Close up of diagonal metal wires (which are attached to a electricity pole, not shown) running from bottom left to top right. There are six starlings, lit by the sun, perched on them. Only four are fully visible. Three in the centre are facing the camera and looking upwards. One on the bottom left is seen in side profile, with the back of another seen behind it. The sixth starling is up at the top right but mostly out of the frame, only its lower half visible. The background is clear blue sky.

Close up of tall, sunlit, bright yellow tulips with single flowers and a fringe of frilly edges to their petals. There are some other tulips growing amongst their foliage but the buds on these are not yet open. Out of focus in the background, a yard and a shed.

As we wait for this spring's bulbs to bloom, I'm continuing to post weekly tulip pictures from previous years to brighten up the timeline.

This is "Yellow Valery", from 2024.

A large tree growing in a state of collapse with thick trunks and branches emanating from a central stump. The stump has two circular "eyes" near its top and a broken branch sticking out between them like a nose or extended tongue. The ground is dusted with snow and blue sky shows through the upright trees in the background.

The many-tentacled, B-movie monster of Castle Coole - or just a big old tree, depending on your perspective.

A metal weather vane - above the points of the compass, the direction arrow sits on a metal ball and also encompasses a metal cut out of an owl in flight. A sunlit starling is perched on the arrow head with its back to the owl. The latter looks like it is swooping down on the starling. Clear blue sky in the background.

A row of sunlit starlings on a electricity line. They are all looking upwards in the same direction except one that has its head turned towards its neighbour, as if it's asking a question. Another exception on the extreme left is investigating the wire it's perched on. The sky in the background is clear and bright blue.

Sunrise on the far side of a field. There is snow among the rushes and fields in the background are all white. The sun is just about to appear over the horizon to the left by a pair of tall, bare trees. The sky around it is a mix of pink and golden hues, changing to blue on the right. There is a scattering of sunlit clouds.
