To the woods


Or to be more precise Fox and Parrot Wood (thanks to the comment below I now know that it was named after a local doctor and his favourite bird) but thanks to Chris for the information on this site. The Twizell Burn runs through this wood and there are a few fantastic ponds there, which are home to some great Dragonflies and Damselflies.

I tried to get some in flight

Went a bit arty on this one

I think the next three images are of Palmate newts
