A couple of week's ago @aaron_skinley and I went t A couple of week's ago @aaron_skinley and I went to @birdlandpark which is one of my favourite places to visit. They have a large collection of birds from King penguins to owls. But also beautiful gardens and a nature reserve (part of their 'Jurassic Journey') which is lovely to walk through. I find it so relaxing being underneath a canopy of trees. #nature #naturewalks #naturewalking #flowers #flower #pinkflower #purpleflower #trees #treecanopy #autummcolours #autumnleaves #leaves #autumnleavescolour #autumncoloursleaves #birdland #birdlandparkandgardens #thecotswolds #cotswoldswalk #cotswolds #bourtononthewater
Birdland has been one of my favourite places to vi Birdland has been one of my favourite places to visit ever since I was a kid. Our parents used to bring us to see the penguins all time - we especially love Seth (The Batman penguin) - and Spike, of course. So it's been strange not being able to go there in months! Thankfully we made a trip there last weekend and we felt completely safe, great social distancing in place, friendly staff, couldn't fault it. Hoping to go back again this month. 😊 @birdlandpark #birdland #birdlandparkandgardens #thecotswolds #bourtononthewater #bourton #penguins #flamingos #flamingochick #snowyowl #jurassicjourney #birdlandjurassicjourney #velociraptor @aaron_skinley
Another lovely walk along the Thames and Severn ca Another lovely walk along the Thames and Severn canal path, this time with my mum. We went over the railway crossing, around the bridge, and I also spotted these lovely red and white flowers along our way. Beautiful. #thamesandseverncanal #thamesandseverncanalpath #footpaths #railwaycrossing #railwayfootpath #nature #naturewalks #naturewalk #flora #flowers #walks #walking #canalwalks #bridges #railway
Second trip to Westonbirt this year. I've definite Second trip to Westonbirt this year. I've definitely missed it coming here! It's beautiful, peaceful, relaxing, and just the perfect place to go for a walk. Or a picnic. In fact, having a picnic at Westonbirt was one of my 2020 goals this year, and, so far, I've had two of them. 😊 One of the only good parts about lockdown is I've been going to more outdoor spaces and discovering new ones too. 🌳🍃🌿 #westonbirt #westonbirtarboretum #nature #naturewalks #naturewalking #walks #walking #picnicspot @aaron_skinley
I said I wanted to explore more of the Thames and I said I wanted to explore more of the Thames and Severn canal path, so a couple of weeks ago we did just that. 😊 A lovely 23km hike - my longest so far- with a stop for ice cream thrown in as well. 🍦 It was slightly overcast and windy but such a lovely walk. We even made friends with an Alpaca who followed us the length of the field. #stroudvalleys #thecotswolds #cotswolds #cotswoldswalk #cotswoldswalks #thamesandseverncanal #thamesandseverncanalpath #canalwalks #canalpath #walks #walking #naturewalks #canalboat #alpaca @aaron_skinley
Delicious ice creams on the common with mum a coup Delicious ice creams on the common with mum a couple of weeks ago. Vegan chocolate for me and banoffee for her! We loved them so much we brought a couple of tubs home with us. 🙈 Only trouble is the ice cream is almost too nice! As we've finished them already, lol. #icecream #icecreams #icecreamcones #veganicecream #veganchocolateicecream #vegan #banoffeeicecream #banoffee #delicious #rodboroughcommon #winstonesicecream #stroudvalleys #winstones #winstonesrodborough @winstonesicecream
