Photography Course Monday 20th May
Almost perfect weather for yesterday’s expedition. We
decided to follow itinerary 1a with a slight detour to include Lanacre Bridge.
So glad we did, Lanacre was looking beautiful and we saw some Dippers and
listened to two Cuckoos! This was a real bonus for one of our guests who has
never heard one before! The view from Whitestone’s car park overlooking Porlock
Bay was great first thing and we even had a perfectly positioned herd of Exmoor
Ponies complete with young foals to photograph, playing in the foreground. We
also popped down to Nutscale Reservoir and found a nice herd of Red Deer and
watched / listened to the Skylarks. The Gorse is in full bloom everywhere and
looks great. Everything is now at last
bursting into life, it’s amazing how much greener everything looks in just a
week! It was even warm enough to enjoy a picnic at Porlock Weir, complete with
high tide to photograph. Watersmeet is looking very photogenic with the ancient
woodland showing new growth, Dippers nesting and Wagtails catching insects. Exmoor – Why Not!
