Health Walk

Tuesday 13th March - Gareth was in energetic form when he led today's Health Walk from the Sports Centre, he'd skipped the gym first thing, so we had a longer walk than of late.  There were eight of us plus Gareth.

Walking along the cycle track alongside Cock Cabin Wood towards the motorway bridge there are catkins, these have been out for while now, the blackthorn blossom and, on the left of Photo 8, you can see the coppicing referred to into the Spring Newsletter.

We're about to enter the Cinder Path along which I spotted this, to me, unusual growth of moss?
