Very quiet down here today... apart from the cows, which seem tame and a little frisky!
A lovely buttercup meadow is forming over the amphitheatre, and the swifts must be nesting because they were dive bombing both us and the cows. A little wag tail followed us too!
( Really tricky to photograph as they fly so fast!)
A quiet summers day by railway lines always reminds me of that Adlestrop poem by Edward Thomas. It was like that today...'And willows, willow-herb, and grass,
And meadowsweet, and haycocks dry,
No whit less still and lonely fair
Than the high cloudlets in the sky.'
And meadowsweet, and haycocks dry,
No whit less still and lonely fair
Than the high cloudlets in the sky.'
The English countryside... nothing better...!
Lots of interesting bracket fungi on this old sycamore tree...!
This one looks like the Starship Enterprise!!
Time to give Furness Abbey a good haircut...!
