As I walked back down the wooded path to the village, I saw in the shade ahead of me a large grey beast, which on first sight I thought was a donkey; as I got nearer, though, it turned out to be a huge Irish Wolfhound.
View of the Ramblers’ Church from the road out of Walesby
A continuation of the trench for the oil pipeline was there as well.
It’s the middle of June, but this ash-tree on the top of the Wolds is only just coming into leaf.
On the road back through the Wolds, I came across a dead Little Owl, with eyes still bright yellow; and en route I also saw two dead hedgehogs.
