Walk 6 - Holme

4.1 miles 2pm - 5.30pm. We went north this time - to Holme. We wondered if the landscape would be different - and the area around was definitely different from the places we've been before because it was full moorland - but the actual area we walked through had the same sort of plants and trees as always! We did see and hear a LOT of birds though. The other thing was that although all the same trees were there this woodland was made up of more Oak trees than any other places we'd been to before. We walked down hill out of the village and to a river, straight back out and in to a plantation which we walked through for a while with lots of tiny birds flying around and singing! We walked down to Ramsden reservoir then went up on to Crow Hill (lots of birds flying up out of the grass) and then back down to Brown Hill reservoir. As well as the Oak we saw: Rowan, Hawthorn, Ash, Sycamore, Holly, Hazel, Elder, Goat Willow and Beech Trees. The plants we could ID on sight were: Dandelion, Rose, Thistle, Grass, Fern, Bluebells, Brambles and . The birds were: House Martin, Curlew, Tree Creeper, Blackbird, Coal Tit, Robin and some Geese with their Goslings on the reservoir (but there were lots we couldn't see well enough and so we now need a really big ID session to find them all out.)
