The rain kept away for a change ..trudging over soggy moorland in search of a lone tree! Didn't find one but still good fun :-)
Spotted these lovely lambs when out on my walk. I was very conscious of the wired fence with tufts of wool that was keeping them in and keeping them safe.
There are two enclosures fenced with stones. The smaller one for the horses in the main roundup, and for the sheep found in the second and third roundups
Das Foto entstand in einem Wildgehege das ich eher aus Langeweile aufsuchte um eine Wartezeit zu überbrücken. Aber das war's wert, find ich.
The photo was taken in a game preserve that I visited rather out of boredom to bridge a waiting time. But it was worth it, I think.
The church of Las Salinas de Cabo de Gata is a Catholic Christian temple of the early twentieth century located in Las Salinas, between the neighborhoods of La Almadraba de Monteleva and Cabo de Gata, in the city of Almeria, Andalusia, Spain.
The salt farms of Las Salinas de Cabo de Gata, existing since Roman times, were alienated in 1872 by the state. In 1882 they were acquired by a French company; Later, Isabel Oliver and Cueto would buy them and then go to their heirs, the Acosta family by the name of Salineras de Acosta.
The new management of Isabel Oliver and the Acosta, which constituted the Salinas de Almería company in 1904, brought with it important benefits that resulted in urban equipment for saline workers, thus building the church in 1907.
For many years the building threatened the ruin. The last time Mass was celebrated in the church was on December 25, 2004 and, at least since 2007, the authorities promised its restoration. After various vicissitudes, a broad social movement always demanded the recovery of the temple. Both the bishopric, as the City of Almeria and the Junta de Andalucía committed themselves to it. In March 2011, the Church suffered several acts of vandalism, which is why the Bishopric and the Almería City Council reached an agreement for their rehabilitation. Finally, the restoration ended on September 23, 2012, resuming its liturgical activity, and currently the Church of Las Salinas is in good condition, it can be visited and in its enclosure we can find a tourist information point about the temple and the Park Natural of Cabo de Gata.
La iglesia de Las Salinas de Cabo de Gata es un templo cristiano católico de principios del siglo XX situado en Las Salinas, entre las barriadas de La Almadraba de Monteleva y de Cabo de Gata, en la ciudad de Almería, Andalucía, España.
Las explotaciones salineras de Las Salinas de Cabo de Gata, existentes desde época romana, fueron enajenadas en 1872 por el estado. En 1882 fueron adquiridas por una compañía francesa; más tarde las compraría Isabel Oliver y de Cueto para pasar luego a sus herederos, la familia Acosta con el nombre de Salineras de Acosta.
La nueva gestión de Isabel Oliver y los Acosta, que constituyeron la empresa Salinas de Almería en 1904, trajo consigo importantes beneficios que redundaron en el equipamiento urbano para los trabajadores salineros, construyéndose así la iglesia en 1907.
Durante muchos años el edificio amenazaba la ruina. La última vez que se celebró misa en la iglesia fue el 25 de diciembre de 2004 y, al menos desde 2007, las autoridades prometían su restauración. Tras diversas vicisitudes, un amplio movimiento social siempre exigió la recuperación del templo. Tanto el obispado, como el Ayuntamiento de Almería y la Junta de Andalucía se comprometieron a ello. En marzo de 2011 la Iglesia sufrió varios actos vandálicos , motivo por el cual el Obispado y el Ayuntamiento de Almería llegaron a un acuerdo para su rehabilitación. Finalmente, la restauración terminó el 23 de septiembre de 2012, reanudando su actividad litúrgica, y actualmente la Iglesia de las Salinas se encuentra en buen estado, se puede visitar y en su recinto podemos encontrar un punto de información turística sobre el templo y el Parque Natural de Cabo de Gata.
This is one of the sheltered spots in Willow's enclosure. I love the butterfly tree, the secret to keep it flowering is clipping off the browned flower heads.

when my strong arms receive you,
the voices of absence, sweetly
our leisures will count two paths
without anyone, with the two of them, never and always.
And the pair of words messes
to deep unity. and so much number
is reduced to the edge of the encounter
with amazement of being poetry.
I no longer know how to walk except towards you.
The rose of paths of your absence
alert in me the scent of return
and the hidden word of his science.
I hear my name in you, I am your presence.

The Gruffy, Sanderstead is a small park with a pond and a few benches. It sits at the top of Sanderstead Hill, between the main Limpsfield road and All Saints church.
From www.croydon.gov.uk/libraries-leisure-and-culture/parks-an...:
The area around the pond and church once constituted Sanderstead Village, until in 1799 the squire added the village green to his park, a process of enclosure that went on in Sanderstead during the 17th, 18th and 19th centuries.
In 1958‐60 Sanderstead Archaeological Group excavated in the vicinity of the pond and found traces of a 17th century lodge‐house and further digging revealed the presence of man as far back as the Mesolithic Period, nearly 12000 years ago. Pottery fragments dated between 100 AD ‐ 1300 AD, a bronze belt‐end of saxon era was also found.

Thursday was the first day in ages that was perfect for an outdoor adventure, so we took the girls to the zoo. The animals were happy about it too and were quite active. According to the volunteer at the elephant enclosure, this was the first time these two males have spent time together. Samson was born at the zoo and turns 15 on Sunday, and Tuffy is 40. They were really enjoying each other while we were there, so hopefully they will get to do this more often. HFF!
Banteay Srei (Fortezza delle Donne) è un tempio induista del X secolo d.C dedicato al dio Shiva, si trova a circa un'ora di macchina dai principali templi di Angkor, su una strada sterrata e dissestata.
Contrariamente al costume khmer, non è legato al nome di un sovrano, ma a quello di un sacerdote brahamano, Yajnavaraha, grande studioso e filantropo che si prodigava molto per aiutare le persone in condizioni di eccessiva povertà.
La maggior parte del tempio è costruito in arenaria rossa e le colonne e le pareti interne presentano un numero incredibile di accuratissime decorazioni. Gli edifici stessi sono miniature in scala degli standard delle costruzioni khmer.
<Banteay Srei (citadel of the women, or citadel of beauty) was the only major temple at Angkor not built by a monarch; its construction is credited to the courtiers named Vishnukumara and Yajnavaraha who served as a counsellor to king Rajendravarman The foundational stela says that Yajnavaraha, grandson of king Harsavarman was a scholar and philanthropist who helped those who suffered from illness, injustice, or poverty.
Banteay Srei is built largely of a hard red sandstone that can be carved like wood. Brick and laterite were used only for the enclosure walls and some structural elements. The temple is known for the beauty of its sandstone lintels.

After I had spent some time at Mogshade Pond, I headed down through Bolderwood to find some areas that might still be foggy.
Thankfully at Vinney Ridge, next to the A35, the area was still quite foggy and the sun hadn't yet risen above the trees.
