Forest detail

Fork in the Footpath

I had a choice to make on my walk as there was a fork in the footpath. I thought I was familiar with both options but discovered otherwise after turning left.

I was heading back by this time. Having taken in some of the details and views of and from the forest I decided to extend my walk and in doing so Continue reading

Beauty and the Beast

Thistle and bee
