| Elan Valley sunset |
After the stresses of July we finally got to Gigrin on 12th August
well and truly frazzled. We had booked four nights after which
we were heading to Pembrokeshire but the weather and scenery
and relaxing atmosphere worked its magic
and we ended up staying 12 days.
This little Nuthatch was a regular visitor to our camp,
its acrobatic antics keeping us amused as we breakfasted.
Max has lost all sight now but came to play
whenever he wasn't busy elsewhere.
Sadly he has to wear his muzzle all the time now but
it doesn't stop him having fun or wanting fuss.
The Red Kites were in attendance as usual making amazing
shapes as they own the skies.
We did get out and about and discovered
some abandoned lead mines
high up on the mountain road beyond Bridge of Elan
where the waters run dark and deep
before flowing into the Wye
further down towards distant Rhayader.
Never a dull sunset, either in woodland close by our camp
or across the valley beyond
where big skys make big pictures.
