Another sunshiney day and another flat walk, this time from Helston towards Loe Bar all the time surrounded by beauty. Join us along the way. It is all National Trust land and is just glorious.
1 In a lull between storms we went for a walk from Helston to Loe Bar through fields, woodland, swampy mangroves, alongside the biggest freshwater lake in Cornwall and along the cliffs above Loe Bar – a brilliant walk for photographs!
Having our picnic before we set off we saw so many beautiful little birds – Goldfinches Long tail tits, Blue-tits, Coal tits, a Wren and a couple of Goldcrests and some Pied Wagtails, more than we’ve seen in our garden for a long time. On the walk we saw cormorants and ducks of all kinds and a couple of hawks.

2 All along the way I was amused to discover ‘The Green Gym’ for those for whom the walk was not exercise enough!

3 The reflections in the pool and in the puddles were beautiful. I took a self portrait of me doing what I love , taking photographs of beautiful things in the great outdoors!
