I haven't been to my local National Trust places in ages. So this morning I dragged myself out of bed and headed to Wimpole ( I last went in March!)
A nice change of walk. Alas no snowdrops.
Well it's been a cold start to the new year. The local ponds are still frozen.
As I go past an area of New House development. There is a raised area of grass land. This morning as I glanced up I saw a horse. In five years there has never been anything up there other than birds. This horse had a coat on and I assume it's the same one as was on the common recently as they look the same and it's the only one I've seen. The footpath wanders around the bottom and two ponies were trotting towards me and said hello. They then went up the top. I wonder if they will be there tomorrow? Also I thought they had to be tethered?
When I walked home and Coalport was still duckless. I had just crossed the road when I saw 2 ducks circling. They disappeared and a lot more flew over so I popped back and ..
Apologies for the lack of posts. I have done things but there weren't many photos. I haven't taken my camera on walks.
There are Siskins about and I have seen a flock of Redpoll.
I want to change the lack of posts but a look at the weather forecast might delay it a bit !
I was out with friends for lunch yesterday which was nice.
I've been for a New year's walk this morning as has this chap
I haven't been to Wrest Park in ages they have a Wild in Art Shaun the Sheep sculpture trail on and as the weather today looked good off I went.
I like Wrest and it is a shame I've not been recently!
