This is the second time that we have completed this walk, but thankfully this time we were only accompanied by a bracing wind,. In the absence of the driving rain experienced last time, the walk this time was quite delightful, enhanced by the evocative call of Curlew, Red grouse galore and a singing Skylark.
The highlight of the day, giving an "Ah" moment was a mare with hr very young foal.
