Yesterday we went for a walk around a local country park. As usual we picked the wrong time to go, it had been raining the night before so it was a bit muddy, but it was nice to be out in the peaceful fresh air.
We followed the numbered trail,
Came across some rather unusual shaped trees,
Found some pretty dried thistles,
And saw some wibbly wobbly roots.
I’ve always found tree roots interesting.
And I usually like strange things that most other people wouldn’t stop to look at, such as mould or decayed tree trunks. Does that make me weird?!
Trees have always inspired me. I remember doing a photography project on trees at uni, I developed the photographs in black and white. I wish I had made a copy of the photos, I never got that work back.
They are in the process of working on some fun activities at the country park. Soon we’ll be able to glide through the trees on rope bridges, zip lines and cargo nets!

These pics are lovely! You've inspired me to get out next weekend with the kids and go for a walk in our local woods
I find similar things fascinating too, and I'm sure we're not alone! Lovely photos, your country park must be really pretty in the spring – not long now!
