Aiming for 1000 miles in a year
Total so far: 279.7 miles (8.2 miles this week)
Hello
Burrator Reservoir circular (3.5 miles)
This was a completely unplanned walk. After a picnic lunch near the reservoir we decided to walk across the dam, and then round the corner and then a little further and eventually it was just as well to walk all the way round! So we did.
We saw a pair of pied wagtails, yellow wagtails, Canada geese, some other geese and ducks, streams and waterfalls, sheep and Dartmoor ponies.
No camera = no photos. But it was splendid and well worth a visit if you’re in the area. A glorious day too! No more talking about it from me but you can see pictures and a description on this site:

It really does look like this! When we go back I’ll do a proper post about it!!
