Woodland Wanderings

Just opposite where we live is some lovely woodland. Tons of beautiful trees and the odd wild boar or deer if your lucky enough to spot one!
It's a regular dog walking area for us Bells and Hettie loves it too. Lots of space for her to run around in. We are always guaranteed to see something different every time we visit.

We put on our boots and off we go!

There many types of funky fungi that we see. Shanna has a good eye and can always spot the tiniest of mushrooms. Some are edible, some are not. Different shapes and sizes too and all interesting and beautiful in their own way.

                                                      
                                       

Last week we spotted lovely crocus and some primroses. I'm easily confused as I thought these were Spring flowers! I'm sure it's Autumn - the sheer amount of chestnuts showed me that!

Signs of Spring in Autumn??!

A fairly steep climb to the top rewards us with a great view!

Nearly home!

Figs and Walnuts

The hedgerows and trees always gift us with lots of delicious delights. The figs were turned into a relish with fennel and balsamic vinegar (lovely with goats cheese) and the walnuts are slowly being eaten as snacks, added to salads and baked into cakes!

Thank you Mother Nature!
Hasta luego!
