When the going gets tough...

Almost certainly colder than last weekend, but fortunately without the cruel wind, today was a cracking day to be out in the forest. I'm suffering a bit of a cold so took the precaution of a head scarf, which I'm sure was the right thing to do! By about 10AM the sun was starting to take the frost off the heather, but the frozen ground and surface water stayed all day. With no real wind the sound of the forest was spectacular, birds singing and the ponies reduced to eating gorse.

This afternoon I took Miranda out with Domino for a walk, which she enjoyed very much, a photo I'm sure will follow...
