Although light showers were forecast, none materialised and this proved to be an almost perfect for walking. Pleasantly warm with a gentle breeze to cool us. The views all round were superb from Snowdon in the East to Anglesey and the Rivals to the West. Today was indeed a day when the walk should not be rushed, but one to linger long and often to take savour the views. Today this was a popular route and we encountered many other walkers enjoying the experience.
The birds seen or heard today were few, but included: Carrion crow, Raven, Chough, Kestrel, Stonechat, Swallow, Starling, Wheatear, House sparrow, Mistle thrush, Chaffinch, Chiffchaff, Jackdaw and Grey Heron.
After walk drinks were enjoyed at the Britannia Inn, Pentre Halkyn where the Lees biter was quaffed with relish!
