The well runs dry

An ascent of Worcestershire Beacon today from Great Malvern.

The last time I made the ascent, I watched a bird of prey hovering above the hillside but had the wrong lens on the camera. This time, armed with the right equipment - nothing! Just a few magpies and crows.

With the icy winds howling around the beacon, fingers numb, I didn't feel inclined to linger longer.

Calling in at St Anne's Well (café) I found that the hot red lentil soup had sold out!!
