A misty valley to start the day
Curious sheep, a sign of things to come
Into the mist
Oh, fancy seeing you here
I found this pigeon high up on the way to the summit of Pen-Y-Fan. I can only imagine it got lost in clag. I put some water in the bottle cap and it gulped it down. It also nibbled some bread and let me stroke it.
Pen-Y-Fan summit. I didn't queue up.
Atmospheric.
Looks like a cool route.
Oh, hello there.
Another curious creature. She was after my lunch.
A poser.
Definitely a poser.
More path. More mist.
The clag is clearing.
Ooh, a forest.
A path and a forest.
Views over the hills.
Descending back towards the start.
Cool stream.
A short detour to a wee trig and some wee ponies.
Foxgloves.
Trees.
Nearly back, a common path to finish on.
Lots of trees.
