A Misty Walk

Christmas Day was quite bright and dry but Boxing Day and yesterday were damp and dreary the air heavy with fog. I can't remember seeing a fog like yesterday's for a long time and those we did experience were usually a month earlier.  How strange the weather is at times. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it will be kinder at the end of next week as we have to travel into Nottinghamshire for a funeral.  No fog or snow please!  

Today it didn't seem quite as bad so we ventured up to Westport Lakes for a stroll.  It was good to get out and about for a while after three days at home.

 I took a few photos as we walked around both lakes.

We couldn't see the other side of the larger lake.

Tree down after the storm of a couple of weeks ago.

 There's always a Robin to bring a bit of colour and cheer.

Not sure what the Black Headed Gull is looking at above.  It has spotted something.

Great plops of dew were falling from the trees some making ripples in the water others falling on passers by.  There were a few hardy fishermen at the side of the lake.

The paths away from the lakeside and into the woods were very muddy.

The water birds appreciated these two folks with their bags of bird food.  There weren't many people about today and the roads were very quiet.

Thank you for your comments on my last post.  I will get around to answering them soon.

Take care.
