Clock Face Country Park to Colliers Moss Common and Bold Moss

Today we went to a familiar starting point, Clock Face Country Park carpark, but did a different walk; to Colliers Moss Common and Bold Moss.
Our 5.6655 miles (9.1177 km) route for today's Meander has been saved and can be seen at http://www.gmap-pedometer.com/?r=6658704

The couple of detours were to visit areas of interest. Below are 5 collages to provide you with a taste...





We were, as we have on most of our walks this year, lucky to see so many wild flowers, other plants and birds.
Loved the Great crested grebes (Podiceps cristatus) and their two young and neither of us have ever seen so many teasel plants (Dipsacus fullonum).
We also saw many, and I mean many, tiny Common froglets (5mm at most; Rana temporaria)

To get a taste of the other things we saw, visit https://sharalike.com/s/dwqc, or take a look at the embedded video below...
Chris and I both agreed that it was a place we would revisit and in the not too distant future.
