Fox #Moths are pretty impressive critters, given that we've had plenty of cold weather lately. Quite a bit milder today and they're on the move.

Tiny vivid turquoise fungus growing on a dead branch on the forest floor.
Bright orange red mushrooms on the forest floor, one is broken off and upturned.
Some astonishing colours for #FungiFriday from the lovely #Arnside #NationalLandscape #AONB of north #Lancashire.
A beech tree with twenty something branches coming out from near the base. There's an outcrop of limestone rock just behind, and lots of fallen leaves on the ground.

A map showing the national park trail going through Dorset and Somerset, with a pink arrow showing today's route.
Hoping to verify two legs and 30km of the #SlowWays #NationalParksTrail today.
#MaidenNewton over to #Crewkerne mostly through the #Dorset #NationalLandscape and linking the #NewForest and #Exmoor.

A close-up of a single pale pink dog rose flower seen from the side, yellow stamen in the centre just visible. Framing the shot are the long stems of the plant with clusters of leaves in pairs. Blurred in the background is a woodland scene with bright sky patches filtered through foliage.

Absolutely blown away by the beauty of the Shropshire Hills, seen on a walk over The Long Mynd. What a landscape! #Shropshire #NationalLandscape #England #walking
A landscape view of rolling hills seen from a high view. In the foreground are two pine trees providing scale. The midground shows the ground far below, faded with russet tones with winter trees faintly green with a blur of indistinct new growth. Ivy and conifers in dark green mark the structures of tree trunks, while a hedge climbing a hill completes a bowl shaped curve to this section. The far distance is split in two, the closer section green harlequin fields with patches of mixed woodland while the far distance is a patchwork of fields and woodland leading to the sun dappled heath and moorland of Exmoor. In front of it all is the blurred shape of a tiny cradled sylvanian black cat baby in a long green wrap with high collar. It's Reggie!
We are high up and can see so far! It makes huge trees look as tiny as me!
I think of all the shiny and nice things waiting to be found

A bird's eye view of long thin grass, mostly brown with some dark green bits poking through in wispy patches. Lying on the grass are four sylvanian babies. At the top are Red Pop, a deer baby in an apple costume with red shoes, talking with Wells, a sheep baby in a green romper with white lace trim. Near Wells is a small blue hat and yellow backpack. Below them is Pickle, a grey striped cat baby in a blue nursery smock with yellow shoes, pointing up at the sky. Lying next to Pickle, leaning on their shoulder, is a tiny cradled black cat baby in a blue velvet coat with two buttons. It's Reggie!
We are cloudwatching with new friend Wells ^-^

A low shot of grassy ground. Blurred in the distance, against a sky of fluffy grey banks of cloud and bright patches of sunlight breaking through, is the silhouette of a gnarled looking tree without leaves. In the foreground, in focus, are four sylvanian families babies. Red Pop on the left is deer baby in an apple costume, waving to the new arrival on the right who is a sheep baby in green romper with a blue hate and yellow backpack. They look to have been wandering by. In the middle are Pickle, a grey striped cat baby in a blue nursery smock, waving at the sheep, and a tiny cradled black cat baby in a blue velvet coat with two buttons. It's Reggie!
After big sammidge we go for a long walk.
We met a new friend!

Time lapse of a snowy Baldersdale this week.

A path curving around the slope of a hill covered in an assorted of deciduous and conifer trees. Part way up the slope a thick trunked tree dominates the scene, its branches twisting wildly up slope into the misty sky.
A straight path leads between leafless trees that are tilting slightly to the left. The sky is a fuzzy grey, the trees in the distance faded and ghost like.
A hill covered in trees breathed in mist, seen between a gentle dip in a row of leafless trees and holly.
A straight tree in a wood, its trunk green with thick moss. Bright green Ferns sprout between its gnarled roots, contrasted against the russet red leaf litter covering the ground.
The edge of the mendips in low cloud.

Did you know that, following the National Parks and Access to the Countryside Act of 1949, The Quantock Hills became the first English Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in 1957. In 2023 AONBs were rebranded as National Landscapes in-line with National Parks.
