Anderton Nature Reserve... my favourite square mile in my local countyside.
Haydn's Pool.... a different view from my norm.
This is from near the new bird-hide... taken last Sunday... the first day of April 2012.

Witton Brook...water was extracted from this stream during November to refill Haydn's Pool after last years drought left it devoid of water... a sorry sight.
Haydn's Pool is behind the bush on the left... about forty foot higher than the brook (stream).
OK... I do have a lot of favourite square miles in the UK....but this is walking distance from home.

Yes, Great Brittain is wunderful for walking, special in the countryside!
I love it!
In the eighties of the last century we walked the Offa's Dike Path, the border between England and Wales, so wunderful.
Enjoy the Easter weekend!

Wonderful shots of the place. With water filled now the site is great.
A nice place for wondering.

Very nice having a bird-hide.
Thank you for visiting my blog. I hope you visit often. I nosed around your rambles and found it very interesting. I will be back.
I am so pleased to have you stop by for a visit with me just now, and I'm enjoying ever minute I'm here, perusing your blog. It seems the two of us --you and me---like to blog about the same things. I love birding...I love taking my camera on all my walks [beach, hot birding spots along the coast, and in and around parks in the city--plus even in my backyard].
I will feel honored to become your newest follower, and hope that we both get to take times in our day to stop by once in a while to enjoy each other's treasures in photos!!!
Great clouds makes the sky so dramatic!
Happy SkyWatch to you!
Hi Andrew! Ah-ah, so you have a super new bird-hide at Haydn's; you're going to love it, and we benefit from the photos you get to take. Your opening shot with the low clouds under a beautiful blue sky is first class
I love the photo of the stream.
What a beautiful spot to have within walking distance from home! From the looks of that beautiful blue sky, you had a great day for exploring!
That looks like a nice place to walk. I hope that you have enough rain to keep your pond and stream full.
It's nice to have a lot of favorite places. I have a few myself.
Magnificent sky in that first shot!
Nothing like having a little bit of Eden walking distance from home.
I bet there's tons of wildlife there! Very pretty spot.
So beautiful...so peaceful!
Beautiful photos. Happy sky watching and I wish you a Happy Easter.
My Sky.
