Down in the Wood

Another windy day but nowhere nearly as bad as yesterday. As it was bright and not really cold at all I ventured out with Poppy for a walk this evening. The little madam made an immediate break for it as soon as she was let off the lead and when I caught up with her she was made aware of the error of her ways by being put on lead. When she was let off she showed that she is more than capable of walking to heel without a lead but just prefers a bit of mischief!

In the wood the evidence of the storm was clear to see. There were loads of trees uprooted or with huge splits and the branches hanging off.

The one in the picture was huge in length. I guess thats one of the downfalls of a wood. Where the growth is dense you often get long rather spindly trees as they reach up from the darkness of the wood to find sunlight. It was in full leaf and it seems a pity it has been another victim of the high winds.

Nearly Wednesday and a day closer to the weekend :) Thats if we don't get blown away completely by then!
