Breakfast in the fog

Not many people would have gone out for a walk in the fog that enveloped our village this morning. However, we heard woodpeckers, watched blackbirds scurry across the path in front of us, looked at beautiful lichen on branches, sparkling spiders webs, and it was very quiet indeed.

And then we went past these young heifers eating their hay. They blew down their noses at us, unperturbed by the dog as they pulled the hay out of the rack.

The fog was just beginning to recede as we turned for home.
