My photo of the day is this lovely butterfly shot - I am very pleased with it - mind you there were lots more that I was not happy with!

10th August photo - butterfly
Today's photos show a typical rural Shropshire summer afternoon walk - with a bit of geocaching thrown in as well - I reached 700 finds today!
Steven & I are in the middle of a series of caches which are all set around railways lines that Dr Beeching axed in the 1960's - it is actually quite sad to see all these disused railway bridges and areas where the tracks used to run. Most of them are fenced off - but today we managed to get quite close to this bridge. There is a huge tree growing right in the middle of the track!
Most of the lines now lie covered by farmland and the farmers were out in force today harvesting their crops.
leaving fields looking very barren now.
