Some fantastic shots there, especialy the stonechats. Cornwall is top of our holiday wish list, maybe next year!

I was down in the same part of Cornwall a few weeks ago (based in St Just). Seeing your photos brought back happy memories. It was particularly nice to see the choughs!
ReplyDeleteI've just written about Cornish Choughs on my blog.
ReplyDeleteKatie your blog gets better and better. Only trouble is being desk bound during the launch of Natural England makes me green with envy!
ReplyDeleteHow is your job going?
All the best,
