Dartmoor too hot

[bunn]

 Weather has been so fabulous this week that I took a couple of hours off and headed to Rix Hill on the edge of Dartmoor for a walk. 

We found a car in the woods.  It had been there some time. 

I heard two woodpeckers while we were walking through this wood, but didn't manage to see any birds, let alone photograph them!



I liked the way these trees leaned over to make a sort of corridor

The ponies were out and about looking very shaggy and gormless.  I wondered if this one was part guineapig, it certainly didn't look 100% horse.   Mossyfaced object. 



I finally found a bird and managed to photograph it very nearly in focus! It seemed unimpressed with me, and left. Is it a raven or a crow?



Az found something horrible and decided he would smell better wearing it.

It was so hot that even though I walked them down to the stream, Mollydog really wanted a drink by the time we got back to the car.   Her banana-nose makes me laugh in this pic.

I was heading for the stream anyway so I knew I could scrub him off.

Plus one excellent thing about my two is that they are nonstick dogs, so no matter how much Az rolls, he always had a hard time getting anything to adhere unless it is very runny.

Mollydog never rolls in anything. Nor does she become muddy. It's like a superpower!
