Dorset Walks

Monday April 15th 2013
Moreton Forest





A very quiet afternoon walk that was enlivened by the sight of large numbers of newts in the ditches and even the puddles by the path. The photo below has been uploaded onto iSpot to check that my identification of them as palmate newts is correct. If you click on the photo you will be taken to the relevant page on iSpot.
