Anglezarke

Had a lovely walk out today with my husband while the children were at their grandparents. was lovely to enjoy the peace and quiet and to hear all the birds singing. We spotted grey wagtails, a robin, some great tits and heard a wren

There was cuckoo spit everywhere but we didn't hear any cuckoos!

The woodland floor was covered with this wood sorrel - it has a pear drop taste

We found this nest on the path - its amazing how it is so intricately made

 and the inside was really hard and smooth

There were also lots of blackberries in flower - a good spot to visit in the autumn.

 This one had pinky flowers

This oak was a lot different in shape to the one in our garden.

We also spotted these oak apples

Spotted this butterfly on the brambles - not sure if it is some sort of Skipper?

We did a spot of geocaching on the way too

Lovely peaceful walk revisiting an area where Paul proposed to me many years ago!
