Walking the hedgerows

With an appointment at the hairdressers late morning I managed to get a lick of masonry paint on the yard wall. It looks lot better and brighter after replacing the pointing and scraping off the flaking paint.

We decided on a longer walk from Sinnington up to Appleton le Moors and back on a circular route. The hedgerows filled with Sloes and the remains of the Blackberries seemed to be attracting the butterflies. Rather liked this Comma. The extra shows the outside of its wings.
