Newborough wanderings

A glorious day and a walk through the dune woodland, onto the beach and the spectacular pillow lavas, before exploring Llanddwyn Island and returning along the beach.

Walking through the woods - Round-leaved Wintergreen still in flower.

Welsh Mountain Ponies - conservation grazing.

Pillow lavas - formed underwater at a constructive tectonic plate margin.

More lavas and below.


Looking along Traeth Penrhos.

...and back into Snowdonia.

The mediaeval church ruins on Llanddwyn island.

...and the lighthouse. 

Looking across Llanddwyn Bay.

A colourful mixture of rocks.


There weren't a lot of grassland fungi, but it was nice to find these 'tongues'.

An enjoyable day for all.
