Bempton & Buckton (Pond to Pond) Walk - 24th September 2023

 

"Tall Oaks from little acorns grow"

Not the best of mornings, damp, dull and very overcast, mild though, so a wander around the villages of Bempton & Buckton (pond to pond) and avoided getting too wet. 

Buckton Pond

"Wait for me, mum!"

"Between a rock and a hard place?"

"Keep up"

"Which of these rocks is the hard place?"

Nature can be "funny" or "raw" and it is easy to offend "sensitive people, especially on Facebook! So, here we have an heroic female Mallard carrying her "exhausted" male to safety 😇.

Post cloacal rubbing, bathing 😇. Oops, did I, can I say that ?

Derelict but still with us (Buckton)
