And another photo credit to @meliorist for spotting this excellent, if slightly worried, cloud 😁

#sillyScribbles #cloudCreatures #nonsense

A photo of some green tree tops with a blue sky and vertical stacked cloud above. The cloud had gaps for a mouth and eyes, which I have subsequently drawn on along with some arms. It looks like it has a wide, heavy (and indeed fluffy) furrowed brow.

Morning Mastodon!
The sun is shining.
The trees are green.
The sky is blue.
The clouds are - well - the clouds are being a bit odd tbh but still, what a pleasant day (no, I haven't looked at the news yet, and you can't make me).

A photo of a wooded hillside sloping up on the right hand side. The trees are different shades of green, and bright in the sunlight. The sky above is blue, with some fluffy white clouds, some of which are very vaguely shaped like a head with an open jaw and two bulbous eyes on top. I have added teeth and eyes.

Nope, I am absolutely not avoiding the chores that I definitely need to get done today. Definitely not.

Well, maybe a little :dustSprite:

Ahh, dammit. Off to do some adulting. Have a good one.

#sillyScribbles #cloudCreatures

A photo of a fluffy white cloud against a blue sky, sitting above a wooded hillside. There is an indent in the cloud, that I have interpreted as a jaw, adding big square white teeth, eyes above, and arms below. They look pleased to see you.

Today's cloud creature has an important public service announcement for people taking advantage of the sunny weekend to visit rural Scotland.

I realise we're sleepy & quiet & laid back compared to life in the big city but it is very important that you understand WE STILL HAVE CARS.

Just back in from one short walk & saw two near misses as people walked on the road instead of the extremely roomy path.

*sobs*

A photo of a cloud above a mountainside against a blue sky. I have drawn on it so it is standing on the hillside, with arms folded in front, a toothy grin and eyes.

Ooh, nothing like taking a bit of time off to be a tourist with visitors, then being swamped by STUFF. Gonna take a few more days for me to get back on top of everything. Have a silly cloud pupper while I sort through it all.

#sillyScribbles #cloudCreatures #Scotland

A photo of a wooded hillside with a blue sky above. There is a white fluffy cloud resting on the hilltop, which looks like a dog running to the left, mouth open, ears flapping behind in the wind. Well, it looks a little like that, and I've added some teeth and eyes to help.

Just popping in with a quick "hello", as I have visitors this week so am mainly offline being hostess and tour guide. Had a quick wander at the Ben Lawers Nature Reserve yesterday, home to the Best Rocky Stream and friendliest clouds.

#sillyScribbles #cloudCreatures #Scotland

A photo of a beautiful mountainside with a small rocky stream running down it. There are large lichen covered boulders, patches of still dark brown heather, mossy grass and bare, just budding trees. In the distance is a mountain peak, with a blue sky above. There is one cloud poking up from behind the mountain. It has a smiling face and upturned arms, greeting you to this lovely place.

- So, you finally stopped messing about with clouds?
- What? Oh, aye.
- Really?
- Nah.

#sillyScribbles #cloudCreatures #nonsense

A photo of a large fluffy white cloud against a blue sky, with a church spire with a weather cock on top in silhouette on the left hand side. The cloud has a big gap, like a mouth, to which I have added big flat teeth so it looks like a big tooth grin. I have added eyes above, and arms either side, one reaching out and holding on to the spire. No idea why. It was just there.

@eclectech do u know this video? My human once found it here on Masto :mastolove: #cloudcreatures

There is something a bit weird going on. Been sorting through my photos from the last week & LOADS of clouds are forming with open mouths. This is not normal. You'd get one every now and then but honestly, they're EVERYWHERE.

I, of course, welcome our new Chompy Cloud Overlords but still... it's a bit odd. There is, I suppose, a slight chance that I have just spent too long looking at clouds.

It's a mystery 🧐

#sillyScribbles #cloudCreatures #Scotland

Photo of a blue sky with a few fluffy white clouds, one big solid one near the centre and other more wispy ones above and to the left. Some large bare tree tops cut across the bottom left corner of the frame. The main cloud has a v-shape cut out to which I have added large flat teeth so it forms a chompy jaw. I have also added eyes above, and arms.

You know how the wee window you type in asks "What's on your mind?" before you've written anything?

Sometimes, when I've posted the picture and it's just sitting there with that question above, I just think "well, not very much, obviously".

Anyhow, apropos of nothing in particular, have another cloud.

#sillyScribbles #cloudCreatures #Scotland

A photo of a mountain top, trees, and a big blue sky with one rather smooth but wibbly white cloud in the centre. The cloud looks like a number of fairly smooth clouds stacked together, and there is a V shaped gap in the middle which I have predictably added teeth to, then eyes above. It's looking very excited about the big, leafless tree on the right hand side.

It has been a dreich winter, and seeing blue skies & fluffy clouds this week has been a treat but now my phone is full of cloud photos because they were just too splendid not to snap. Case in point 😁

#sillyScribbles #cloudCreatures #Scotland

A photo of a blue sky with a large white fluffy cloud, dark trees below, and a bird flying above. The cloud has a hollow on the left hand side, to which I had added flat teeth so it forms an open mouth, and have added eyes above. It is gazing at the bird flying by. It looks happy. Whether it is excited to see the bird, or excited at the prospect of eating the bird, we do not know (although they are not the teeth of a predator, so I suspect the former).

The Tuesday happy cloud hopes you all have a SPLENDID day 😁

#sillyScribbles #cloudCreatures

A photo of a big fluffy white cloud against a blue sky, with a wooded hillside sloping across the bottom of the frame. The cloud has a big open smiling mouth shaped hole, so I have added eyes above and upturned arms. They are a happy cloud.

#sillyScribbles #cloudCreatures #photography

A photo of a blue sky with many white fluffy clouds, above a line of golden grass. There are numerous small clouds, and one large one leaning in form the top right hand corner. It has two section, and appears as if it has large open jaws facing the left, with a small cloud inside. I have added eyes and teeth to the large cloud.

Sun is shining. Went for a walk. Good clouds.
Sometimes they do so much of the work I barely need to bother scribbling.
(Yes they do, shush now.)

#sillyScribbles #cloudCreatures #Scotland

A photo of a wooded hillside with a blue sky and scattered white fluffy clouds behind. One of the clouds has a big sideways V shape cut out of it, which made it look like big gaping jaws, so I have added pointy teeth, eyes above, and outlined a running dinosaur type creature with spikes on its back around the rest of the cloud. It's running to take a chomp out of a round marshmallow cloud resting on the hill.

The important thing to point out about this is that the original photo definitely shows one cloud coming out of another. I have merely emphasised what was already there. So aye.

#sillyScribbles #cloudCreatures

A photo of a blue sky with many fluffy white clouds taking up most of the frame, with a small strip of water at the bottom, and the silhouette of a mountain climbing up on the right hand side. There is a central cloud that has a bumpy plume of cloud sticking out from it, as if bursting forth from within. I have scribbled on it so the plume now has eyes and slightly goofy looking teeth, and the main cloud has a wide open mouth (from which the new cloud is emerging) and scrunched up eyes. It has legs stretched out behind, and arms bent up towards its mouth.

Maybe this is how clouds are born.

Maybe it's the result of an alien infestation (the alien looks very friendly if so).

Who knows?

Just reminding myself after a day in a damp cloud that the blue sky is still out there, which works on both a literal and figurative level for me today.
Anyhow, the cloud folk says hi.
