Alan V Had a great outdoors weekend even though it rained a great part of it. Saturday spent at Westport lake then a drive to Peckforton hills, walked to the top in the rain just as daylight was starting to fade way. Today was spent at Tittersworth reservoir, a very rainy day but took the long walk, nice and steady to see the sights. First picture of Peckforton, the others were taken at Westport, a great place to see many birds. I visit there regularly.
