Just beginning to notice a few more aeroplanes in the sky….until recently these were almost the sole occupants of the sky:
and now these have returned more noticeably
Those vapour trails are returning

It’s good people can move again but then part of me thinks shame our skies are being clogged up again!
Well, quite
I wonder why you’re seeing more now? Change of flight paths to avoid Iceland?
No idea…..
I noticed that too, now when you see one you are like a child – look an airplane 😀
There was a Pink Floyd track, forget which one, on the Wall album….and you hear a child’s voice “look mummy, there’s an aeroplane, up in the sky”
I think we’re all in two minds about traina, boats and planes now. One half of me wants clear skies and no more planes with their pollution, but my other half is quite sensible knowing that progress is unavoidable and we need to be able to move about in the skies. What we have to push for is a more inventive way to approach pollution. I remember meeting a scientist during the first big oil crisis who worked for one of the big oil companies and he told me not to worry that they already had a substitute for oil but it would mean investing heavily in more and different equipment and the big companies wouldn’t do this until they were forced to. I think it’s probably the same today.
Yes, we need to find better ways of reducing pollution
That makes sense. I would like it to go back to having fewer flights and fewer seats so it is more comfortable. We have come to want everything to be cheap, but cheap isn’t always good.
Yep, agreed
I do wonder how much Iceland is playing into it. Contrails can be fun to see though. Great photos Sue.
I wonder
I noticed contrails in this part of Ontario the last week or so.
OK
We have no shortage of aircraft, due to being close to both RAF Marham, and not far from the the USAF base at Lakenheath. But they are usually much lower, and noisier, than the civil aircraft heading for Norwich Airport.
Best wishes, Pete.
But surely it has been less busy?
Military flights don’t seem to have changed at all, Sue. Perhaps even more of them in fine weather.
Oh, right
I rather like the sky without the planes. I was watching a buzzard circling this afternoon – that’s all the flight I need right now.
And I like the fact that the songbirds are noticeable when the sky is quiet, Jude
Well, I have songbirds here all the time and they are very noticeable, but not much in the way of aircraft over Cornwall compared to the south-east.
Well, quite
Yes, I’ve also begun to notice and hear them… I find eagles and hawks to be a much more pleasurable sight but also long to freely travel again. I do believe “where there is a will, there is a way.” Hppefully, humankind will have savored the natural skies enough this past year to commit to doing something positive to preserve them…
Let us hope so
We ran into a conspiracy driven man one otherwise pleasant afternoon that said that contrails were evidence of something dastardly. I love them just the same! LOL
😊😊
I couldn’t help notice that the sky is so bright and blue. Here, we could hardly see such beautiful skies peppered with fluffy clouds. Woes of living in a metropolitan.
Oh dear
