The best view of the day! It may be early, but there are plenty of Bluebells about!
Walk stats:13.1 miles; Climb:1351'.
Time: 5 hours 51 minutes: On the move walking average:2.6m.p.h.: Overall walk average:2.2m.p.h..
Group:Martyn, Richard, Roger, Dave J., Gordon, Annie H., Michel and and Sue.
What a god day for walking this turned out to be. Not quite sunny all day but almost and very little wind. temperatures in the high teens what more could we want? the walk, a little contrived at times resulted in a later than usual lunch (had Fran been with us she wouldn't have been best pleased!). Birds seen were few, but we heard plenty and the the Spring flowers were magnificent. Bluebells seems to be well on their way and our normal Bluebell wood walk I think will have to be brought forward to the middle of May rather than at the end!
Birds seen or heard today included:Robin, Blackcap, Swallow, Blackbird, Carrion crow, Pied wagtail, Chaffinch, Chiffichaff, Willow warbler, Buzzard, Coal tit, Blue tit, great tit, House sparrow, Dunnock, Jackdaw, Wren and Raven.
After walk drinks were enjoyed at at the Britannia Inn at Pentre Halkyn, although the bitter today wasn't at its best!
At 13.1 miles this was a little longer than expected, it won't be as long next time!
