The cloud furthest away was darker than shown in the photos and the nearer definitely had the appearance of Mammatus cloud.

Maybe Mammatus
On our way back from our early morning walkabout I could hear geese in the distance. Unfortunately they were too far away to photograph but I noticed a junction between two cloud formations which stretched right across the sky.

Monday Mystery - Feel the Heat Version
Last week I asked you to spot the two letters making up the 3D shape in this video
The letters J and C were correctly identified by Ragged Robin.
The making of the movie
The 3D shape on my home made Arduino driven turntable.
A single LED light. Black background material.
Nikon Coolpix on a tripod.
This week I have a thermal image taken with the SeeK thermal camera attached to my iPhone
What did I photograph?
Please leave any guesses in the comments.
They will be revealed, along with the answer, next Monday.

Monday Mystery - the Movie
Something a little different this week as you will soon see.
First - last week I showed:
The Weaver, Adrian, Ragged Robin and Kris correctly identified it as part of
a Horse Chestnut seed (conker).
My thanks to those who had a go.
This week I have a video for you.
Some time ago Adrian (Adrian's Images) was experimenting with a computer program which combines two capital letters to produce a 3D shape. Adrian kindly sent me a design which I printed as a 3D object. There are two letter combined to make the shape. Can you see what they are?
One is easy to spot the other not quite so easy though it may be easier on this close up video than it is in real life.
Soundtrack is "Instinct' a royalty free music file from Bensound.

Red Sky in the Morning
Yesterday morning we went walkabout at just the right time to see a beautiful Sunrise
I keep hoping to see a purple Sunrise or Sunset. They have been seen and photographed recently by others. The purple colouring is a result of high altitude aerosols from volcanic eruptions scattering blue light..

Monday Mystery
Another week has flashed by so here we are with a new Monday Mystery photograph.
First, last week I showed this close crop
which Dave and Adrian correctly identified as part of
a pine cone. The slightly unusual colouring was a result of it being very wet after a heavy shower.
Thanks as always to all who made a guess.
This week it may be easier to identify what this is a close look at

How Did She Do That?
I found Penny's identity disc in her bedding along with ...
... the remains of the reasonably strong split ring which had connected the disc to a D ring on her collar. It must have taken quite a lot of force to open it out that much. My guess is she caught a claw in it while having a scratch. In that case I would have expected her to kick up a fuss as she has a very low pain threshold.
