Keeping an eye on me!
A quiet path . . .
hides a lovely display of bluebells . . .
where the recent rain lingers on the leaves and . . .
further along the path some brightly coloured gorse
Walking through Norcross Wood . . .
blubells . . .
and garlic in full bloom
Panorama as I walk through . . .
a field with long grass - note the footpath
Two trees to the left of which . . .
if you look very carefully . . .
you will find the footbridge . . .
evidently part of a local initiative . . .
and more visible from the opposite side!
A song thrush chooses a power line to sing for a mate
A tree attracts my attention . . .
and taking a closer look a visitor looks for refreshment
Brightly coloured rhodedendron
Unfortunately my path passes through the sheep's sleeping quarters!
What a treat . . .
compared to field . . .
after field of long (wet!) grass
Thank goodness for the zoom!
Keep your head down!
On May 14th the easing of Lockdown allowed for a 'normal' walk - click on picture above
New route for Luna - a whole field just for her!
That was a tiring walk . . .
time for a nap
