Just a couple of photos to go on with. I'll add more later. We took the mountain road from Beulah across to Tregaron yesterday. It was just as well I hadn't had too much caffeine as it was a bit hairy in places. For those of you who know Porlock Hill, imagine this half the width (single track lane), often with sheer drops one side or the other. Not for the faint hearted - going over a hillock to find the road disappearing from view and often going into a hairpin bend. But we survived, and stopped in Llandewibrevi to visit St David's Church (separate post) and then Tregaron (heritage centre, also a separate post), before going on to Llanarchaeron (separate post). We also went to Powis Castle and I'll do a post on that too.
Looking back to where we saw 10 or a dozen Mistle Thrushes - they keep together in family groups late summer. One youngster was hopping/flying up the lane ahead of us for quite a way so we got a real close up of him. Beautiful birds. Lots of Wheatears, Stonechats etc too.
That's civilization in the distance!
