Thank-you. I didn’t include any red insects as I am saving them for an exclusively creepy-crawly post.

Great pictures. I especially like your Robin’s Pincushion. I haven’t seen one of those for ages. There are lots of Wild Roses in the farm hedgerows and I feel like going out to look for one now. An inspirational post 🙂

Thank-you. I love robin’s pin-cushions too and have seen a few this year. Perhaps there are good and bad years for this galls?

This is one of the most interesting posts. The mixing of the different types of plants/fruit/root vegetables etc that are red or part red, is so surprising, it makes the post even more beautiful.

You are so kind! I was quite surprised at how much red there was as from a distance it looks mainly green. Fortunately, not all of the red was autumnal!

I know – we associate it with autumn, and along with that association, comes a slight strain of sadness.

The eating looks as though it is going to be good.

That is a lot of red and it’s a pleasure to see it. Because of my colorblindness I can’t usually see red in the landscape unless the lighting is just right.
The water lilies are beautiful.

Thank-you. I understand about colour-blindness. One of my cousins wanted to join the Navy and had been a cadet for years. Unfortunately, it was discovered he was colour-blind and therefore couldn’t do what he had always wanted to do.

That’s too bad. I’m lucky I guess, that colorblindness has never had a great impact on my life.
