Been up to the hillfort, Warbstow Bury. Our favourite local dog walk, and better for the wildlife now they've stopped it being grazed by sheep. This view would be like a bowling green or golf course normally, but now much more full of flowers, grasses, and wildlife of all types than it has been before.

#HillfortsWednesdayAlso SilentSunday - not putting the hashtag in front of it so as not to clutter it. That one should be just that hashtag and a nice photo of yours with alt-text. I scroll past all SilentSunday toots with multiple hashtags and text (apart from alt) and won't boost them. It isn't you, it's me - this is how I first learnt how it should be, just a calm stream of nice photos.

Seeing as it's #hillfortsWednesday why not celebrate by buying (and reading) a book with lots of hillforts in it. Also contains crows, old paths, my vendetta against John Betjeman and thoughts on being a woman and walking, along with much else besides. www.waterstones.com/book/the-har...
