Clearings such at this are rare on the walks.. and always a welcome relief to the eyes and to the feet.

Sometimes we have to skirt around the fields.

The field was actually at the end of our transect.

The markings are big and clear.

The poor quality of he shots are because we were not allowed to take cameras on the transects and i used my mobile phone to click a few snaps whenever we sat down for a break.
