I like the name.

Boundary stones or markers are quite common remnants of the world before accurate mapping. This one also marks the boundary between Lancashire and Yorkshire, an important distinction.

Three little pigs have been released on a Cornish moor. The pigs will act as natural 'ploughs', turning over the earth, eating the roots of bracken etc. This will create habitat for lizards and snakes, while also distributing seeds for birds to forage. Hopefully more pigs will be released in future.

You did ask for stone circles in my next blog, so I have focused on The Hurlers, a triple set of stone circles on Bodmin Moor, Cornwall.

However, I do venture to a pre-iron age enclosure, a long barrow, some stone crosses, and the cave of an 18th century mountain philosopher.

Sometimes the light hereabouts takes my breath away. I was out walking on a road with no traffic - it goes across the moor and on to some forestry land - and no one else around. No signs of human habitation. An eternal scene. Been like this for eons. Will be here long after I’m gone.

Found myself in a long yesterday. Still, the views through the car window could have been worse! Great views down to the Etherow too, but road barriers got in the way of the . A628 Woodhead Pass.

A calm and quiet evening out on Hobbister nature reserve. This is one of my favourite places on the Orkney mainland and is my local birding patch. It's a truly fantastic place to spend some time alone with nature.

Feels like the right evening to revisit and the glorious Dart . Selfishly I don’t want to give too much away about the location. It’s my favourite river spot!

Out on the moor this morning, came across this red deer herd on the hillside. Such majestic creatures, strong yet elegant. Aways great to see them 😍

A Year on Dartmoor - August

The High Moor is still a rich, dense green, the light still hazy and unhelpful. Time to stay by the rivers and woods.
