Broom Quarry - Birdplace
anna-newkey just finished a 3.39km walk, that lasted for 57 minutes.
This walk helped anna-newkey burn 253.1 calories.
Description from Strava: Today we went around part of Broom Quarry, also called "The Birdplace" in our house.
It would appear that Mia hasn't got much appetite for a walk today, not to mention a run..
She has been up all night to be fair, in and out of the garden annoying the neighbours.. 😄
Tarmac, the company that quarries the area, have the obligation to restore the quarries; these trees are the newer ones, while older trees are on the other side of the quarry.
I believe, this a Mallow struggling on..
Grass cut everywhere, unusually early..
This quarry has been turned into a bird reservoir and is a popular spot for watching them. The water is very low right now.
Think, these guys can't stand me.. haha
I wonder what this is about.. some low posts have been put in on the side of the path where a spot was marked before..
This is the other side with the more mature trees.
Mia hiding in the grass again just as the phone comes out.. 😄
This is the main entrance and view point. The island in the middle is normally well covered with water.

I like to mix them up if possible, makes it more interesting for the doggie friends too!
I bet that was nice, swimming in the pool! 👍🌞😎
What a great training you are having my dear friend!!!! That's good to keep us in shape and also good for our health!
Beautiful shots of your run, I loved them.
Greetings and blessings!!! Hope you are well!
Oh, how lovely to see you here! 😍
Yes, it has to be done; I'm beginning to feel fitter again, yay! 😀
I'm glad you like my pictures! Hive is getting me on track a bit!
I just love all the art that goes on here everywhere, music, pictures..
Just brilliant and inspirational! ❤️
Thank you, my friend! Keep up your singing and playing! Love it!
Oh my goodness... That's my England? I can see how dry it is... Quite shocking! Still, beautiful, and I miss it so..
OH! Where in the world are you then? You're making me curious! Haha..
And, yes, it's all VERY shocking, but has been in the making for a VERY long time.
People like to ignore it until the worst happens to them.
Thanks for stopping by!! Brilliant! 👍
Australia! My hubs is from UK and I used to live there for about six years.
Yeah everyone's paying attention now. In the late 80s and 90s we had terrible drought...so bad that when I got to the UK I totally freaked out at the size of RAINDROPS... It had been so, so, so long since I'd experience that kind of WET!!! My hubs thought I was quite mad. But that kind of endless dry affects you. There were kids that had never danced in the rain. Unfathomable. I'm always aware it'll come back at some point.
Ah, cool! Ehm, well, not cool, really!
Yes, people pay attention, but now they're discussing alternative garden plants, that can stand the heat!
but instead they MUST get on the job and change laws!!! But nobody does! Makes me mad! 😡😩
It's all too little too very late!
I'm sure you know that better than anyone where you are!
For you it's the raindrops that kids don't get to see (getting less here too), and up here it's the snow..
We should cancel Christmas if you ask me.. It involves too much stuff!
And that brings me back to your post! 😄
Oh my god yes, cancel fucking Christmas! I agree!
Haha! You do speak my type of language! Excellent!
I'm in Bedfordshire, by the way,but originally from Hamburg..
Really nice meeting you! 😃
Lovely photos an details on your walk. I’m guessing that you edit the post once it gets pulled into your feed, in order to add extra photos etc?

Aww, thank you!
I create the content in Peakd, then add a description in Strava and then copy and paste
Basically trying to time it.. not easy.. still finding the best way.
Ah right, I see that makes sense.
