LEG 1 of our adventures. It will be scenery and bear heavy as the birds did not really come out to play. I'll be adding to the thread as we venture out.
We've been glamping in the Forest of Dean - I haven't been here for over 40 years and never got to properly explore - what a wonderful area - sadly no Goshawks or Crossbills - I met with local birders who were hoping to see them - I think they probably appeared 10 minutes after I moved on.
On the Friday we went to Tintern Abbey - there wasn't much about - a young swan and Jackdaws
The serious stuff - We were in the Forest to take part in draughting tests and for me to judge as well. So proud of my boy - he passed his Level 4 test - which is the highest level and was foot perfect the whole test
After the serious stuff of the weekend it was time to explore
First stop was up to the area of West Dean and a walk with a local
It's hard to explain how wonderful it is to be able to walk for 2+ hours and not be on roads and dealing with traffic. Tired, happy dog
