The rich rural scenery of North Fife, Scotland, provides variety from the historic city of St Andrews and the quaint harbours of the East Neuk of Fife. A Royal Palace in Falkland, a Folk Museum in Ceres, a National Trust Mansion House near Cupar, Balmerino Abbey, Lindores Abbey, Newburgh, Dunbog, Glenduckie, Creich, Birkhill, Ballinbreich, Abdie, Upper Flisk and more in beautiful North East Fife. Also the occasional wander.

Toads North Fife 2010
The common toad (Bufo bufo) or European toad. The first warm night of the year, a little rain and the annual meet of toads is beginning. A few years ago I would move the odd toad from the garden path partly to avoid treading on them but also to help them to the pond. This operation could be repeated many times until I realised that Toads are territorial by nature and it would be the same one back each time, indeed the same ones would be back each year so now I let things be.
