Great pictures of Dartmoor in the mist and the ponies, when you see them so regularly it's hard not to get attached.

I love the toad's lack of interest in the slug and the cute little Stonechat, too. I was interested in your lawn plants, I've a new plant that's starting to creep everywhere here and take over the grass. My resident grazers aren't interested in it. I must look it up or post a pic for ID.Wendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02792703802542843791noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7109597837911345568.post-45686658953715167582013-08-02T10:56:24.314+01:002013-08-02T10:56:24.314+01:00Lovely post and photos as always Em.
