A pictorial diary of my walks around the parks and wild areas of Leicestershire, and occasionally farther afield.

If you're new to my blog, you might like to have a look at the pictures in the older post as well (click on button at the bottom of the page).

I am also a writer, using the pen-name John Gwynant, and I'll occasionally announce my latest book release on the blog.

Thank You Wildlife Sightings Group

Thanks to everyone who responded and so quickly. I was seeing others getting comments and likes and my photos seeming to be ignored, so I thought I was posting pictures that weren't to the taste of the group.

Following you response I will keep posting .
