Saturday 20 December

We are having much joy out of the garden birds, who are already trying out the nextbox, and are attracted by the feeders.

 

A day of varying fortunes in terms of weather, but we manage to almost dodge the showers during our walk in the woods. This time, we stay outside the Castle Country Park (which we almost always do), going up by the cemetery, and then a short circular back to the Scoundrels' Road - I give the name in English. In years gone by, this was the route by which scoundrels were taken to be hanged on Gallows Hill, about 2 miles away just outside the city of Arnhem.
