Big Wood, Allestree, Derbyshire
A nice bright sunny start, hot but thankfully the humidity level has dropped. Not a hint of a breeze through the woods…. just the twitter of lots of small birds. The summer visitors were late arriving so they were late nesting and breeding, the good news is that there are lots of insects to feed the hatchlings.

Equally as calm down by the Lake…. not a ripple.
Maybe this is the calm before the storm as the forecaster predict a change, heavy rain later and high winds towards the end of the week.

Such a beautiful place! I hope the weather change is somewhat gentle.

I think its a throw back to our very wet winter which apart from one cold snap was also the warmest on record…. I have never known the foliage, be it meadow, lakeside, hedgerow, woodland and even garden so rich and full.
