Across frosty grass, a ray of sunlight reaches the old oak tree

#TimelineCleanse On the 9th January each year a single shaft of sunlight reaches across #WesternPark to illuminate the #MajorOak

A nearly full Beaver Moon, no me neither, behind pink sunset wispy clouds above trees
A row of Turkey Oaks leads us to a bright moon in a pale blue sky above rough grassland

The Sun also rises
Bright red hawthorn berries in mid August
Huge bunches of hawthorn berries
This year’s very early crop of all forms of berries in #WesternPark a feature of our #drought and the #ClimateCrisis reminds me of an autumnal narrowboat trip on the #OxfordCanal. A motley crew of 20somethings and the somewhat unworldly parents who we’d joined. At one point on a crisp morning

Fruit and Nut Municipal Orchard in #Leicester’s #WesternPark, planted by schoolchildren from New College, once dubbed the ‘worst school in Britain’. Early years but the crop is coming, #apples, #pear and #hazels @tomemurtha.bsky.social @municipaldreams.bsky.social @rideleicester.bsky.social
A green melange of oak, bramble, blackthorn with unripe green sloes, some ripening blackberries and oak canker acorns
This #WesternPark #Leucester woodland melange made me think of the Ladybird Illustrators

An ominous dark cloud bank behind sunlit trees, in the bottom third is dappled sunlit grass. A man and his dog stand in the distance observed by a black and white Bordernese in the foreground. It’s just beginning to sleet.

A smooth clean cycle path between shrubs and trees. Fallen leaves brushed away.
A Bordernese dog waits patiently while the photo is taken of a clean cycle path in Western Park rises into the distance lined by the bare cherry trees. You can see tyre tracks where the vehicle negotiated the bollard.
Thanks @rideleicester.bsky.social what a clean cycle path in our leafy #WesternPark. First time I can remember it being cleared of wet leaves above the @worldbollardassoc.bsky.social . Silky skills by the operator too.
