not a major expedition just a pleasant walk around the edge of a wood and good photos

[johnnythefox]

i cant walk far,so make the most of my time out and about.
this is a bit of woods near me i have been exploring bit by bit.
i have red kites,deer and lots more all around me when i am alone.
these yew trees are very special,i have never seen a formation like it.
they edge the whole of the lower south side of the woods.
what i have found is now that i walk so slow i see a lot more and feel a part of whats around me.

this ones straight on uncropped red kite

red kite

deadly nightshade?

my favourite tree,the branch out is long and springy at the end.perfect for when i need a break.

this is my enzo trapper its a tool and has saved me a few times.i cant bend and i am tall so i use it to clear overgrown vegetation when its across a path etc.

Thats a serious bit of kit Johnny, just had a quick butchers at it mate, very nice indeed and a very pricey, but worth it for that clarity of a picture sir
