Last Saturday we had a few spare hours so we returned to Grizedale Forest for a limb-loosening walk.
The weather was perect for a walk in the woods - damp, slightly misty and with a very light drizzle. Although it was only the second day of autumn there was no doubt that we were now in the 'Season of mists and mellow fruitfulness'.

The moss was nearer yellow than green |
Mists drifted past |
The drizzle formed droplets on the pine needles |
Amanita Muscaria (Fly Agaric) - toxic to us but not to other more slippery visitors |
