Walk 4 - Danebridge

5.5 miles 12.30-5.30pm. A wonderful sunshiney day! We made our way out of Danebridge along the river Dane, stopping for lunch by the river we saw crayfish, shrimps, a really strange fish and Caddisfly Larvae in the river! Our walk took us up through fields to Hawkslee, climbing then descending again to a clough through Cartlidge Wood and back over more fields. We saw Blackbirds, Wren, Sparrows, Ducks, House Martin, Wagtail and Robin, Mayfiles, Damselflies, Hare, Sycamore, Hawthorn (loads - all out in flower!) Common Alder, Birch, Beech, Oak, Ash, Rowan, Elder, Holly, Bird Cherry, Hazel, Goat Willow, Willow and Apple. At home we ID'd the stitchwort flower and some Herb Robert from photos.
