Walk along the Wye


It was a beautiful sunny day yesterday so we put on our hats and coats and went for a walk along the River Wye between Llangurig and Rhayader. It's so pretty along this stretch of the Wye Valley. We followed the narrow tarmac lane which takes you through the most superb ancient woodlands and pretty river banks.
We stopped at a wide stretch of the river and sat on the stoney beach with our flasks of hot soup and cheese rolls......at the same time being treated to the fabulous sight of two Red Kites, soaring just above us. This is the closest view I've ever had of them. If only I`d had my camera!
Later in the day we called at the Kite feeding station in Rhayader (Gigrin) and watched them being fed. It was brilliant.
