Walk to Baal Wood

Went walking in Baal Wood above Wolsingham this morning. Cool with a brisk wind.
It was quiet in the wood with little bird life although I did see a roosting Tawny Owl which flew off as I approached. There were several Speckled Wood butterflies in one of the open glades.

The leaves are starting to fall from the trees and the Rowan trees are beautiful with lots of berries.
