England is a very dry place: London gets as much rain as Jerusalem.

Tom Pearce has made an ascent of James Pearson's The Walk of Life (E9 6c) at Dyers Lookout, Devon:
View of sparse woodland on hillside with the flat plains of the Vale of York in the distance
Redstart and tree pipit singing on the edge of the Wolds this morning.

Woodland edge opening onto tilled field on edge of Yorkshire Wolds
Woodland path winds through the ramsons
Distant brown fields on Yorkshire Wolds seen through tall beach trees in front
King Alfred’s cakes fungal fruiting bodies on dead tree branch
Walk on edge of woods up on the Wolds, in the sunshine, with Kites calling overhead.
Forest trail dusted with snow, mountain bike in the foreground.
Pretending I know what I’m doing (#roadiewithnoclue) off road at #Glentress. Great fun with light snow dusting the trails.
Silhouette of plant seed head against foggy backdrop with sun just appearing through.
Ploughed chalky field disappearing into fog.
Field of winter wheat with trees beyond appearing out of clouds with blue sky above and sun.
Wind turbine top visible above bank of fog with green winter wheat field in foreground.
Managed to find the top of the fog bank up on the Wolds this morning.
Winter wet grassland in sunshine
Finally some bright sunshine for this mornings walk with singing corn bunting accompaniment.
