Day 90 - On Baslow Edge

I woke up fancying a trip to Baslow Edge this morning and decided to head out and have breakfast from Jolly's. I didn't make it to the edge until lunchtime as I read a bit in bed and then faffed for a while at home before heading out!  I had tea and a brownie plus a cold drink (sparkling elderflower and pomegranate with fresh mint and raspberries) and took them down the road and out on to the edge for breakfast (lunch?!) with a view...

 

I had three of these little guys crawling around on the rock next to me :)

The heather is looking lovely and the views aren't bad up here either.

I had to tread carefully as there were bees all over the ground. Some in and out of nest holes, like this one.

I also found several fox moth caterpillars, but only this one that wasn't squashed. People should look where they are walking!

There were small patches of cotton grass

and a few cowberries

After the cotton grass, I turned back as I had other things to do and needed to get home so couldn't make it a long walk this time.

Once I reached the road, I crossed it and headed toward Curbar Edge just for five minutes to say hello to the cows before I left.
