Alpacas in Staffordshire
A small flock (herd? pack? don't know what the collective noun is for them) of alpacas at Far Brook Farm in the Peak District. It's quite common to find these South American relatives of the llama being farmed in the UK for their wool, which is very fine and a superb insulator. I got this information from a sign at the farm, whose owners are obviously alpaca enthusiasts.

Pasture at Axe Edge Green Farm
I originally titled this "Meadow at Axe Edge Green Farm", but my girlfriend, who is a proper ecologist with certificates and everything, told me that it isn't really a meadow since there's actually very little ecological diversity in it. The very vivid green (not a camera trick, by the way; it really was this colour!) indicates that the ground has been "improved" by fertiliser, which allows a few species of plant to flourish at the expense of a wider variety of more interesting plants. Anyway, I thought it was worth a photograph for the colours alone.

Stream near Flash
This unnamed beck flows from Axe Edge to the River Dane. It's forded here by a bridleway and bridged by a footpath to Flash.

Footpath sign in North Staffordshire
This caught my eye on a circular walk around Flash. Self explanatory really. I followed the path back to Flash, where I was staying for the weekend.

Axe Edge Green Farm in spring
Taken from the public footpath which runs from Three Shires Head to Flash (see Image). The colours here are not exaggerated by camera settings, it really did look like this in the early morning spring sunshine!
