Maghull-Town Green- Aughton- Maghull
After a grey day yesterday, the sun is back out and, although cold, a beautiful day for a walk.
Usual problem with capturing photographs but, unlucky for some, 13 observations.
Walk took us down Millbank Lane and onto Brookfield Lane heading towards Aughton. After Spring Farm we took the footpath to cross the railway and onto Mickering Lane. Another footpath took us through to Town Green Station where we headed past Aughton Village Hall and across the fields to St Michael's Church on Aughton.
Footpaths acroos the A59, across the fields below West Tower Hotel and onto Back Lane.
Heading straight on rather than turning onto Swan Lane we took footpaths back to the A59 and to Hartley's Nursery for refreshments.
Continuing across fields to Millbank Lane and home.

Two: landing on grass and crawling into undergrowth; reappearing and repeating process. I assume they are looking for new nesting holes.
Possible queens as very large.
