Going bonkers for conkers in Beveridge Park in Kirkcaldy Scotland

Hello Hello Hivians

It's actually Spring Bank Holiday Monday today but I wanted to finish the walk from Wednesday which you can find the first part... Thank you HIVE for the bollocking and then the second part ... Greenery abounds in Beveridge Park in Kirkcaldy Scotland in May

So this then is Part C and running the bush gauntlet

If you remember we were being asked for our paperwork as we were trying to leave Beveridge Park in Kirkcaldy.

I left you here ....

This is the inspection tree, he always bends over to inspect your paperwork.

He really is a remarkably flexible old soul, and I hope I can bend over like that when I am his age!

He of course waved us through and told us about the wonderful flowering horse chestnut trees further on in the park.

With all this talk of conker trees I was starting to go bonkers!

"We shall see them soon" said Mrs T

She grabbed my arm and whispered "Look over there!"

What the fluff said I, but can you see in the middle of the picture a pretty wee red robin was watching us from the perch of a branch.

It flew away as I went to take another pic!

I don't know about with you, but here the daffodils die away first and you can seem some of their dark green leaves in the picture.

However what you can really see is the yellowly dead long grass like vegetation is wild garlic. The woods smell wonderful with a vivid garlic aroma all over the place!

Right time is a ticking let's get a march on!

The first time I saw this, I had to write a story. What do you see? A gate in the middle of nowhere! I call it a portal, where does it goooo....

Well it looks like a fenced area, what do you think, a home for goats maybe?

Well there does seem to be some sort of sign, let's go closer and see if it is for goats or maybe some other animal!

Well it's a nice big area, could play a game of frisbee I think!

Woof Woof it's for doggies!!!

Do you have Dog Education Areas for dog obedience training in your area? I have only seen dogs play in there!

Shall we go and play?

Well No!!! We are on a mission, I am bonkers after all ...

There is where we are going, towards the bushy trees...
Let's take the path on the right.

Do you see the flowers on the tree?

Yes this is a horse chestnut tree...

In the Autumn they produce chestnuts or conkers we called them as kids.

They have very distinctive leaves and flowers too.

Is it just me, but is their simplicity their beauty?

Look at that tree, not only did we play conkers as a kid, we used to climb the trees. They were brilliant and strong!

Did you climb trees as a child?

You would be surprised how quickly you could get quite high off the ground!

I was getting hungry so time to head home.

Do you see the yellow balls on the poles?

This is what we call a zebra crossing. Aptly named with the black and white crossing. The amber beacons actually flash and motorists must stop to let pedestrians cross the road.

Time to travel through the time tunnel and eat dinner!

This is my submission for #magicalmonday which was an extension to my #wednesdaywalk from last week.

Thanks for visiting and enjoy the rest of your day!
