It was a very dry and warm well-being walk Wednesday. Key highlights were horses seen in open field. Lovely blackberries seen in the brambles, a lovely snack midway through the walk. A crow seen resting on a tree.

It was an very grey but dry well-being walk Wednesday. Key highlights were seeing and tasting sweet blackberries, horses seen in felids, thistle going into seed, hearing robins and long tailed t**s. First sighting of a Kestrel hovering. Although we are starting to see many trees removing their leaves because of the little to no rain.
