Today, I walked to Leegomery Pools via a post box and noticed some cute social distancing markers along the way.
Rather than seeking food, the Heron I saw fishing a few days ago was surveying his domain from the middle of the pool.

The early morning dull weather fitted my grey mood. I was mulling over some negative comments (about me) from others that do not know me.

Yesterday, two weeks behind schedule in my #walk1000mile challenge I reached 300 miles. Many of my recent walks have been around my garden. Over the Easter weekend the leaves on ‘My Oak Tree’ have exploded into life. Truly amazing!
I bought my 200 mile treat on my last excursion before we were requested to stay at [...]
