HBM.. Have a lovely week ahead.. Thanks for any comments left..
A short trip up to Haldon Forest last Saturday was worth the trip as I was gifted with this lovely sunrise over East Devon. A little mist formed on the hillside below me to add a little atmosphere to the scene so all in all not a bad trip.

Here's a shot from better times last summer, Shot high above the Devon Countryside at Sunset as we spent a blissful week staying on a farm there.
Our first visit to Haytor back in March where we enjoyed some views all around, this was not really the walk I was expecting as the car park is adjacent to this stunning landmark. It is however quite a hike up the steep hill to get there!
The granite rocks of Haytor are extremely popular with rock climbers with the rock in the image I shared back in March being the popular rock to ascend.
I particularly liked the reflected sunburst in one of the puddles to the left of image when viewed large!
Dartmoor, which occupies much of West Devon, has varied landscapes, ranging from the bleak high moor to beautiful meadows with tree-lined streams and rivers. These tend to flow towards the south, where you will find numerous small farmsteads and other small settlements. Here the countryside really is "a green and pleasant land". This shot was taken virtually in the centre of Dartmoor, a mile or two to the east of Dartmeet, where the East and West Dart rivers join together before flowing south to the sea at Dartmouth.
Delightful dwellings in Devon, it’s the quintessential thatched cottages that continue to have us smitten. Tucked away down quiet, primrose lanes, nestled into hillsides, and perched on riverbanks, these chocolate box cottages help capture the wistful image of the English countryside idyll.

I took this shot last October, just before the national lockdown began. Dartmoor in west Devon is basically a 240 square mile granite dome that dates from the Carboniferous Period of geological history. Around the fringes of the bleak high moorland the countryside gives way to heavily wooded river valleys and rich grassland. This was photographed on the north-east side of the Dartmoor National Park, near Chagford (which nestles behind the hill) and Moretonhampstead. It is where the farmland ends and the high moor, where sheep, ponies and cattle roam freely, begins.
Judy and I were very taken with this friendly little robin who seemed to be following us along the cliff-top path at Beer in Devon. Every time we moved along he fluttered after us and came within a couple of feet, kindly posing for my camera. We went back the next day with some food to see if we could tempt him to feed out of our hands, but he was nowhere to be seen.

Crediton is a small town in Devon, approximately 7 miles north-west from the City of Exeter.
Crediton was the site of a Saxon Cathedral for the Diocese of Devon and Cornwell until the seat was moved to Exeter in 1050 and a new collegiate church was built in the early 12th century. The current nave and chancel date back to the 15th century.
This friendly little robin joined us by the edge of the cliff at Beer in Devon, obviously hoping to find something to eat. He followed us closely, often coming within a couple of feet. Sadly, we didn't have any food with us so we returned the next day, hoping he would feed from our hands. We waited to see if he would come back but unfortunately he had decided to move on.
