The Changing of the Seasons

Claire decided she'd had enough of Mummy sorting out summer and winter clothes...can't you just feel the balmy autumn air calling you, she said...so off we went walkies...

 Nothing special in the offing, just our usual local walkies, with variation in direction and time and season...Decided to start out with the homecoming course this time to get a chance at sniffing around freely in a location where I'm normally focused on walking home quickly...

You can just make out the Landmark Tower hazily behind Nobunaga's head...

 Mushrooms springing up underfoot...

...and squirrels, pigeons and other exciting animals to be hunted in the branches...

 Secret sites where humans pray...and thistles to remind me of my erstwhile home.
