This Morning at Busketts

Its Hot and muggy this morning. We walked at Busketts and the dogs decided to pose amongst the Purple heath Orchids. They are springing up all over the Forest right now. Such pretty flowers. This afternoon we had some big thunderstorms , even had a power cut for a few minutes....now it is just hot and muggy again.

Some more heath Orchids


You have to get down low to photograph the orchids!

Some Bits and Bobs from Today

This pretty little foal was right by the road at Janesmoor.

This looks like a very young stallion, he was smaller than the mares and looked as if he was a yearling. However he was certainly doing his best to please the mares!

I don't know what sort of ducks these are , not even sure if it is a Mr and Mrs!

Scruffy duck, I wonder what it is ?
