A Walk in the Woods....

Just north of the village is a beautiful woodland, that follows a river valley. It's one of my favorite places to walk the dog, especially in spring when the wood is full of bluebells...

This is Halsdon NR, and it is a stronghold for otters, although I'm yet to see one here

Some amazing tree shapes and roots...

And some faery houses...

and an old derelict cottage

the chimney stack still standing... mostly

and this is Willow...

and me...
