That’s a nice soaking though – unlike today’s!

How glorious! One-drive reminded me that yesterday last year (if you follow) we were enjoying the poppies down here. Rather later in the day though and without that marvellous misty atmosphere. I have been toying with getting up early and popping into Looe – have avoided it entirely thus far. You’re nudging me closer to that dawn trip…

Honestly, it was wonderful. So much life about, and not the human kind. Misty, cool, atmospheric. Yes, go!

I met another walker who asked where my coat was. I replied that my skin was water proof so I’d left my coat at home. It was quite refreshing!

I agree Margaret, early morning walks are bliss. Especially if a beautiful sunrise occurs. Enjoyed your capture of the poppies and I do miss those English countryside walks.

Even I can’t manage sunrise at the moment as it’s at about 4.00 a.m.! But still, an early walk, even without an accompanying sunrise, starts the day well.

Even though I didn’t mention it, you’re right. It was one of the pleasures. That damp, slightly sharp freshness awakened my senses and put a spring in my step.

Perhaps the best time of the day 🙂 I LOVE the early morning and am out whatever the weather, all year around, ‘cos a certain four-legged lady needs her walks. Haahaa. I am lucky enough to have the company of the birds, singing as if to burst, the odd hare or two and a fox here and there. Almost always the deer are grazing and buzzards and falcons are on the hunt. Every day is different and I have come to appreciate the seasons as they change. Beautiful photos Margaret.

And I’ve gone and jinxed the weather. It’s rained since that day. I did go out early this morning, but super-soggy trousers on a cold day didn’t really do it for me!
