I must say that harebells are my favourite flower of early Autumn - there is nothing to touch that clear, lucid purply-blue. I really enjoyed the walk from the comfort of my arm chair!The Weaver of Grasshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13947971556343746883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4493398068080107368.post-25382947451435960982011-08-01T23:35:15.803-07:002011-08-01T23:35:15.803-07:00What a lovely walk - nearly as good as being there...What a lovely walk - nearly as good as being there! I shall have to go up on the mynydd to see if the heather is out yet. <br /><br />Last winter did for our dragonflies - none survived in the wildlife pond, and I have only seen one in the garden this year, and one the other evening on the way through the lanes to our neighbour's. A few damselflies about, but nothing like the usual numbers. It makes you wonder how everything survived when we had the last cold spell back in Dickensian times, when the Thames used to freeze over.<br /><br />The Harebells were stunning - they are one of my favourite wild flowers, but we don't get them around our valley.Bovey Bellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13117332471600275100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4493398068080107368.post-4831702147060054742011-08-01T22:56:56.819-07:002011-08-01T22:56:56.819-07:00I have never been to Dorset, so, I have really enj...I have never been to Dorset, so, I have really enjoyed coming along on your walk. The Run has fascinated me the most, especially all the cabins or beach huts that appear to lie at almost sea-level.<br /><br />AnnaAnna at the Doll Househttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18282617177491266907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4493398068080107368.post-40166564241539407612011-08-01T20:38:33.727-07:002011-08-01T20:38:33.727-07:00A wonderful walk with a myriad of vistas.

Our purple martins have raised their broods and are long gone from the marina down the street. <br /><br />So how lovely to see your wildflowers blooming and your sand martins flying there where mine is all empty spaces and extreme heat.Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09268304194276808749noreply@blogger.com
