Yes, that's right. My second walk today.
I seem to be feeling the need to revisit some previously regular walks that I've not done for a while. First, there was the Drewton Wold circuit, which I avoided for a while until the tree thinning process had re-naturalised. Now there's this lovely little walk which, if my memory serves me correctly, also got left for a while due to tree thinning. The other walk I've not done for a while is the Brantingham/Elloughton/Welton walk. I seem to think that's because "they" got rid of the friendly Highland cattle in Welton Dale and replaced them with frisky young bullocks.
Anyway, back to today's second walk...

| Start of the walk - I follow the path to the right of the woodland |
 |
| Violets |
 |
| Quirky Curiosity |
 |
| Signpost OCD |
 |
| A geocache |
 |
| Brew With a View |
 |
| I love this old tree - it really stands out on the horizon |
 |
| Wauldby Dam |
 |
| Views over all of Hull in the distance (clearer in real life than in this pic) |
 |
| Heading back into the woodland |
 |
| Wauldby Scrogs - brilliant name! |
 |
| Bluebells just starting to emerge |
 |
| Wood Anemone |
 |
| A whole carpet of them! |
 |
| Primroses |
 |
| More Bluebells |
 |
| Wild Garlic |
I really enjoyed this walk. It needs a couple more weeks for the bluebells and garlic to be out in full bloom I think. I'll be keeping my eye on it as the woodland is like an enchanted forest when the floor's carpeted with bluebells and garlic and bathed in sunshine.
Thanks for looking
