Will this rain ever end? If I go outside for a walk when it's sunny, I can guarantee it will start raining when there's no place to shelter!
The fungi seems to be thriving even if nothing else is, apart from our reservoirs are finally filling up.
The rusty, coloured bracken is sodden and all the footpaths are a little muddy. They are difficult to navigate uphill and down. Sometimes, you go downhill a little bit quicker than expected!
Even though I moan about getting wet, it can give you that feel good factor.
I'm not one for umbrellas, especially when it's windy. A good waterproof jacket, walking boots, hat and gloves are all I need.
And waterproof coats for dogs are a must too. 🙂
I can remember at junior school being taught that birds danced on the ground to make the worms think it was raining. The worms would then allegedly go to the surface to escape drowning, only for birds to eat them. No idea, if it's true or not but it's a good story. This female blackbird was looking for breakfast.
It's forecast some snow next week. It will be a nice change from the rain, so fingers crossed!
