Autumn is my favourite time of year and this day was as cool and fresh as they come. Perfection in the early morning sunshine.

As it was too blustery to consider drone flying this morning I did a return visit to Lindley Wood Reservoir instead. Again it was fantastic exercise for the very unfit me, and I do believe that there was more water in it than last weekend.

A woodland walk near Lindley Wood reservoir provided a lot of exercise (for me). It is certainly a great place to stretch your legs and I will be back regularly.

A return to Ben Rydding Nature Reserve after a couple of months away revealed an ecology beginning its autumn slow down. Obviously less wildlife activity than in early summer but plenty of picturesque tree berries and the local squirrel population to get on camera.

The drone is a Holy Stone HS720R which has a 4K 30fps camera mounted on its own 3 axis gimbal. It has approximately 25 minutes flight time off one battery and can carry a 256GB storage card. They retail at £350 on Amazon UK but are often on discount offer. I was extremely fortunate to spot a 50% discount which is why I snapped it up....

A wonderful weekend of weather which I "squandered" by spending a lot of time in front of a computer. However it did get the website up and running.
