Beamish Woods

We have always liked to get out and about for a good walk with our dog Star. The pandemic put a hold on that for a while. The world is slowly going back to some kind of normal and so today we went for a walk in the woods

The woods we walked in ate Beamish Woods only a 10 minute drive ftom our house.



Looks like this tree may have suffered from a lightening strike at sometime in the past.



Star was loving all of the new sniffs.



She had great fun



I spotted this nest in a tree. I'm sure it is to big to be a crows nest. Dave thought it might be some kind of raptor nest. So long as it's not the Volocoraptor type I'm OK with that



There were lots of diffetent twisty paths to go along



I was getting a bit worried about what might be following us as this is like a scene straight put of Jurassic Park.



Bit of a splash about before we headed home.

We had a lovely walk  but it did make me realise that lockdown has done me no favours, and I am now very overweight and very unfit.

When we got home I got out my My Peak Challenge Programme and have decided that from tomorrow I am going to start off with some yoga and some calorie counting. I really do need to do something 😕
