Had a good time in the forest today despite worries regarding over enthusiastic gun toting Spaniards. There were none around today but plenty of spent cartridges littering the forest floor as testament to their proclivities. Enjoyed looking at wildlife tracks and traces until realising we were carrying no wild boar protection. Loving these seed heads.

These flowers will be everywhere soon. We have been seeing them since Vagueira, in isolated blooms but here the plants blanket the ground. The plants in sunny patches are breaking into bloom, no doubt the shaded plants will follow soon. Some kind of Oxalis, I think.

Went shopping near Seville today. As we were exiting the Carrefour carpark we saw a goatherder and sizeable flock. He had brought the goats out for a walk and to have a quick graze on this patch of waste ground. They did one circuit and then left. Where they came from or went to, I do not know. This was in the middle of town and right by the motorway. Anyway, a touch of local colour!
