As per request, some more from the scenery of Port Meirion. Mostly the foresty shots though I do have more town photos too.

He was a friendly little duck, though he had a bad wing... so he decided to go and swim for a bit.


Hope you enjoy


Cheers for looking

Suprisingly enough, that is the exact response I got from Mr. Duck as I took his photo(s)  :)

Pepper... yeh the forests in the UK can be pretty nice. Lots of strange and interesting tree shapes, plants and wildlife bits. I remember whilst in Betws-y-coed (another place in Wales where we got with cadets sometimes) there was a really lovely lake near Trefriw I think it was. Lovely landscape.

Sounds like a great landscape to visit, although i can imagine foreigners thinking our scenery is interesting to, we got a few nice nature area's, the Utrechtse Heuvelrug already has a landclimate and has been shaped in the last ice age. Means that you drive through a flat landscape, then a bumped area, and then flat again ;D.

I always love looking at the other countries. Even if it's not always that great, it is always good because it is something different. Just googling that place now it looks really nice  :)
