I'm giving a creative writing workshop as part of D&G's Wild Goose Festival on Saturday 19th October. Giving, because it is completely free. Spaces are limited. Book your place here: eventbrite.co.uk/e/creative-wri…

@MandyHa31277737 Thanks Mandy, I'm glad you enjoyed it!

@steverutt Wrong time of year completely, I know, but just finished this and thoroughly enjoyed it. Reminded me of my childhood on the Lincs -Norfolk border, hearing the geese and running out to watch them.

@CambsBirdClub five cattle egrets in a roadside field just north of Pymoor

@RBCFilmTheatre Thanks!

@steverutt We’ll see if it’s available to us and, if so, yes.

@RBCFilmTheatre any chance you'll be screening this? theguardian.com/film/2024/dec/…

@Penbrynhir Yes, loudly!

@steverutt How very beautiful. Could you hear them?

I only went outside to check on the sunset. #Dumfries

Velux, chimney pots, skeins.

Homage to Hugh MacDiarmid outside my local.

Rush hour at @RSPBLeightonM

@Annakwood Oh great! That's more than I've seen this winter by a factor of ten. Hope you're enjoying your time here.

@steverutt Lovely! There were about 100 whoopers near Glencaple this morning - incredible sight

Neptune blues morning. Five whooper swans following the Nith south, tracking the meanders into the heart of town.

@Annakwood Hope you enjoy it! I've done talks over zoom but nobody has ever asked for a zoom workshop before.

@steverutt Thanks so much for this - we signed up for the high tide bird walk on Monday, very excited to see some birds! Sadly I won't get to your nature writing event - do you ever do them online

@IainRousham Oh sorry to hear that - hope it and the recovery goes well.

@radicalhoneybee @eandtbooks Thanks Jacqueline!

@steverutt @eandtbooks I've read it. It's a wonderful book!

@KaneBrides It's not bad is it! The Caerlaverock barnies were decent yesterday as well.

Ohhh! Just the best 🩷

@ClimateSoluti0n Dumfries

@steverutt Wow. Where was this?

@mrc7cam A great place to spend time!

@steverutt @eandtbooks I enjoy seeing and hearing the pink-footed and barnacle geese overwintering on the Solway Firth. I’ll be taking a weeks vacation near Caerlaverock next month.

@albert0_67 A great stretch of coast for geese! I love the Holy Island brents too.
