The hottest day

Saturday 27th July
Cloudy and wet when we got up, drizzle most of the morning.

Had a walk around the pool but was pretty quiet as I thought it might be, didn't stay long as it was raining pretty steady.

Friday 26th July

Bit cooler and cloudier, which to be was a pleasant change to the heat of this past week.

We had a day out today to Bala and Barmouth with Whittles, made a nice change from driving and we quite enjoyed it, not that impressed with Barmouth but it made a change, Lake Bala looked interesting though when we drove past it.
On the return we travelled through the Dinas Pass (Mach Loop) the scenery was simply amazing.


Dinas Pass taken through coach window on my phone.


Thursday 25th July

Much too hot for a walkabout so sat in the shade up the pool watching the heron, Great Crested Grebes and of course the Kingfisher, also a pair of Greylag Geese dropped in.
Didn't get any brilliant photos but I enjoyed myself.

Look what I caught

Down the hatch

The size of this fish that the GC Grebe caught was amazing.

Visiting Greylag Geese.

Heavily cropped, heron with a dragonfly, possibly a broad bodied chaser, never seen so many dragonflies in one place, heron was not only picking them from the stump after they had landed he also plucked a few from mid air.
