Looking across Spade Mill reservoirs
Beacon Fell on the left with Parlick towards the right
Had seen this structure on a previous walk - but now I know what it is used for!
Gorse brightens the day
A misty morning over Beacon Fell . . .
and Parlick
No social distancing here!
Forget me Nots now blooming
Looking back at The Plank - care needed to get off it!
In better condition
The cows have arrived back in the fields
Putting on a good show!
Spade Mill reservoirs
Upper Dilworth Reservoir
Spotted at 8am near home
7.30am and no-one in the park
Lord's Lane, 0.3 miles to the north . . .
and 0.3 miles to the south . . .
and no-one in sight . . .
apart from me and my shadow
Playing fields, 0.6 miles circumference and no-one in sight at 8.50am!
Deer spotted again as before
A sad end to the month
