Gardens of Heligan and Mevagissy

As we walked into the Lost Gardens of Heligan a robin hopped up to us to welcome us and started to accompany us along our walk.

There were not many flowers out in the garden but it was a pleasant walk  countryside  ponds, lakes and through  formal gardens.

Today was a Charity Day - no admission fee but people asked to give to Cornwall Air Ambulance and Hospice.  The helicopter paid a visit before it was called out on an emergency.

The highlight of the visit for me was the Horsemoor Hide where we sat and watched birds feeding right outside.


After several hours at Heligan we went on to Mevagissy and walked around the inner and outer harbour.  As well as the boats moored in the harbour there were birds at the water edge.
