A beautiful morning for a walk in the countryside


Who can resist a walk in the countryside on a bright sunny November morning?  I certainly couldn't.


Our walking activity has slowed down just lately for various reasons so it was so good to get out in the fresh air and sunshine.


We chose one of our favourite locations and set off with camera in hand. One thing we noticed was how many holly berries there are this year - is this the sign of a hard winter to come?


I will let the photos do the talking and hope you enjoy them.












































































Thank you for visiting if you have made it this far. Have a great weekend and I will be back with another blog post soon.

  1. I missed my walk today as we have been busy in the garden so it was lovely to share yours. We have lots of holly berries too. We are hoping for a bit of snow this winter. :) B xx

  2. Once again you took us on a beautiful stroll. There is a lot of berries about this year, I wonder if the old wives tale is true. Lots of berries equals a harsh winter, time will tell.

  3. Beautiful photos. I'm all for hunkering down at this time of year but once I get outside in the fresh air, I'm always glad that I've made the effort. We've had snow already this week, I'm hoping we don't have a harsh winter ahead.

  4. Lovely pictures, I liked the duck and ducklings on the weather vane. Hope it's not right about a hard winter, I've heard this a few times now xx

  5. Really enjoyed your walk. Like you, I haven't been walking as much as I should due to work but I must get my boots out soon. Thank you for the inspiration.

  6. As we have not had one berry on our Rowan Tree this year, I am hoping that this means we are heading for a mild winter here. Where was todays walk Jan?

    1. Hi Helen, perhaps things will be reversed this year Helen and it will be colder in the south! The walk was at St. Mary Bourne. xx

  9. Lovely photos, Jan and such a lovely day for a walk. What are those very pretty flowers in the 3rd and 4th photos, please? Is it a Spindle tree?
    My own walks have got rarer with the onset of the damper weather and I look forward to Spring and drier days. - Rosemary (Rosie's Ramblings)
