Pests



A promising morning, sunny and still. A bit of mist was hanging over parts of the moor. The bilberries, many covered with condensation, were large and inviting alongside flowering heather.


But aerial combat soon began. Some days it's just midges. Others it's just flies. This morning it was both and they meant business. Some of us have the marks to show.

The cows then appeared on our path, doubtless in search of clear water. There's not much of that.


But there's plenty of this.
