Signs of Summer

Distance: 7 miles
Walked: Wednesday 26 June 2013
Total miles walked this year: 150
Route: Blackfordby Spire Walk

It felt so good to see so many indications that Summer's just about here. The hedgerows were full of elder flowers...

...and wild (dog) roses. These are usually white/pale pink, sometimes just white and occasionally (as here) a very intense pink.
