Langstrath

Another glorious day so walked up Langstrath Beck from Stonethwaite. Sometimes you see pictures of the Lake District with ridiculously blue skies and bright green valleys .....today was one of those days!

Langstrath Beck - the swimming pool is just below the tree- refreshing!

Keeled skimmer - a good record for the area and a golden ringed dragonfly.
We also saw common hawker and large red damselfly.

More harebells and bog pimpernel.
The pimpernel was in part of a lovely damp area with lousewort, tormentil and sundews.
We also found mountain everlasting on some of the mid river boulders. 

...and Rocky, who really didn't like us swimming nor when he fell in!
