Hambleton Wood on the banks of Rutland Water

Such a glorious day today (Sunday), went to Hambleton with my dog and camera and enjoyed the walk through Hambleton Wood on the banks of Rutland Water. Saw trout being caught by fishermen in boats, ducks and geese were enjoying the weather along with everyone else and the bluebells were still there to be admired, although they are tending to go over a little now.

One or two butterflies, mainly cabbage whites to be seen and there was one Orange Tip butterfly patrolling his territory. Thought I might have seen the odd grass snake, but not to be. A fabulous day in the sun nonetheless.
