14/10/2022 Walking around Thornton Reservoir approx 5 miles

 Bit of a grey day to start with. Forecast gives a better morning later.

A view of the reservoir, three miles around or five miles if you turn back at the dam and retrace your steps to the start.

Some lucky person has a pony. Perfect for those without a head for heights. 

The trees at this time of year are just starting to take on their Autumn colours and discarding their leaves and fruits.

Very scenic.

Cormorants on guard.

Fungi spotter - it's that time of year again!

Old farm machinery graveyard.

Farmers have been ever so busy.  Fields have been ploughed and re-sown with the next crop.

The council here has a novel way of keeping undesirables out.  Doubt anyone or anything would get through these thick thorns etc.

It's a very pleasant walk with the usual great company.

Half way point.

Picture perfect, version 1

and picture perfect, version 2

See you next week.
