An interesting Ramblers walk today called the three rivers walk. It also included an old cemetery used by staff and patients of the nearby former Angelton Lunatic Asylum. It’s frightening how people with mental health issues were treated only 100 years ago. #Bridgend #Penybont #Ogmore #Lynfi #Garw #Cerdded #Ramblers #Cymru #MentalHealth

Took advantage of the lovely weather, and went walking around #Ogmore Castle with my mother in law. Then went to #Bridgend castle for a quick look around, now back home with a cuppa (not pictured!).
#Curry and #poker night later with our friends, then a lazy Sunday tmw. Happy Saturday, all!

Encountered a surprising number of #birds on my cold walk at #Ogmore #Castle yesterday. They were dealing with the brief blizzard much better than me. Pictured are #CanadaGeese, #Teal, #Shelduck and #MuteSwan, Also seen were #Mallard, #Cormorant, #Goosander, #LittleGrebe and #GreyWagtail

Braved (?!) a short blizzard this morning to get a #DailyPhoto of #Ogmore #Castle. Was hoping for more #snow on the walls, but 🤷♂️.
Think I prefer the #BlackAndWhite version ... not that there's much colour in the original

Another grey day in South #Wales today, but managed a quick #DogWalk down the #Ogmore #River to #OgmoreBySea, Plenty of #Gulls and #Stonechat around, a good view of #TuskerRock and a happy #GoldenRetriever

A short #walk to the confluence of the #Ewenny and #Ogmore rivers today gave me frustratingly distant views of many #birds, including Redwing, Little Egret, Kingfisher, Goldcrest, Shoveller , Goosander, Teal, Goldeneye, Redshank and a flock of 30+ Curlews. My photography skills were particularly bad today, but even a blurry photo of a curlew is worth it in my opinion 😏

- The pretty "chocolate box" village of #MerthyrMawr
- The #BigDipper #SandDune , 2nd largest in Europe at 61m, and finally
- The ruins of the 14th Century #Candleston Castle
