A Devil's Coo
A tip from a friend had me heading over to the Devil's Punch Bowl today; he had spotted some highland cattle on a family walk. I just had to investigate.
I opted for the Highcombe Hike walk, a 2.8mile walk round Highcombe Edge, down into the bowl (a natural feature caused by streams carving out the land over thousands of years) and a (steep!) walk back up to the visitors centre. Signs of Autumn are already appearing, including the emergence of masses of earthball fungi (extra).
As I walked past fields at the bottom of the bowl I spotted some of the Exmoor ponies which are used for conservation grazing. Then the field along I found more ponies and my objective, the highland cattle, which just had to be my blip for today (another in extras)
