Mushrooms

Today, whilst on her 4 mile walk through Upton Park, (she insisted I put that in) Suri collected some wild mushrooms - not sure whether they are edible or not, but after checking on line we decided to try one sort (we tried those on the bottom right of photo).

Well they tasted lovely fried in butter ..... and we are still here with no side affects.

Maybe try some more tomorrow - hey that is living dangerously.........

Holes Bay Poole

Recently Suri took a walk through Upton Park and around Holes Bay, past the RNLI headquarters which is close to Asda, finishing her walk after the Lifting Bridge.

It was a beautiful day and she took some lovely pictures including some migrating ducks - she estimates that there were over 200 - probably Eurasian Wigeons but can not be certain see:

Also thre was a flock of Canada Geese and a family of Swans along with a couple of Little Egrets.

I hope you like the photos the bay is beautiful particularly when the tide is in and the sun is shining.

If you are in the area then check it out it is a very pleasant walk and there is so much to see - just keep your eyes open and be alert.
