A simple walk up Warter Road, the weather slill overcast but not raining.
The cowslips are still showing well...
There was a Linnet singing to its mate, but it was a bit shy...
And a very shy ginger bumble emerging to taste a very hairy "dead" nettle flower...
We noticed that the bluebells had been out and out in the open (ie not under trees) for some time and looked a bit closer. The plants looked like Spanish imposters or hybrids, but I would be happy to be told otherwise.
And then a car drove very slowly along the road towards us. Very slowly. What could it mean?
Then the tractors came...
And they came...
And they came...
Cheer up lad, only another 20 or 30 miles to go. Should be home in daylight if you are lucky.
It was, I think the annual East Yorkshire Young Farmers Charity Tractor Run, but we had no idea it was happening, it wasn't in the local paper.
And then they went...
With the prospect of trying to overtake around 200 tractors travelling at walking pace on a single track road we decided to go the other way.
