Walk To Community Orchard
This mornings walk to the community orchard and the fishy ponds. Took some bread to feed the ducks but only one coot did we see and he didn't seem interested. Nice November day - quite mild.

Old Warrington Road
Nice walk after dumping stuff at the local tip. Amused by the tip feller's Halloween display of ghouls and skeletons! Nice to get rid of all the garden rubbish and stuff from Dave's house. We felt a lot lighter! The woods looked wonderful in their autumnal foliage. A few squirrels being frisky among the fallen leaves. Lots of dog walkers and their crazy hounds.

Walk Down The Canal Path
Plagued by ladybirds on our walk to the canal this afternoon. I had 5 on me at one time. Lots of spots. Hazel says these are the kind that are dangerous and go for the throat! I think she was kidding. Anyway.......we could only snap this one as the others all flew off or vanished up sleeves and down trouser turn-ups etc.So then we went over a bridge. We saw swans and some boats. One was full of sweets in cellophane bags. My teeth ached just looking at them!Lovely sunny day - was like being back in July again!

Marbury Walk/ Picnic
Pleasant walk in Marbury Woods and along canal, garden centre etc. with old chums Stella and Brian. Nice picnic in their motor home in the car park. Weather was OK - not too cold. Lots of soggy leaves to walk through. Back to ours of dinner and more cake. Yum!

Early Morning Walk - October 3rd. 2024.
This mornings early walk down the Old Warrington Road after dropping off Archie and Meriel at the station. ( Off to Manchester and Marsden ) Saw some daft dogs and a dead rabbit and dead vole. A friendly twitcher daggling with clickers and cameras was recording the Cettis Warbler over by the Flashes. A rarity it seems. He was counting all the wood pigeons ( over 2,000 ) . Geese flying overhead honking away. Sunny for a change.
