Drumburgh NNR

A lovely morning walk, cotton grass at it's best. I love the reflections - particularly the ones bits of white cotton grass floating on top - could have done with waders and lots of time to position them perfectly!

Silloth Dog Show and Mawbray 'gallop'.

A lovely afternoon - thanks to Crooked Oak Agility for letting Rocky have a go on the agility course! Needless to say the edited out photos show a different story to the apparent effect of the photos below where he appears to know what he's doing! Then a lovely run on the beach at Mawbray.
