A different sort of storm!

This was the scene as I came back towards Exmoor on Tuesday afternoon - a pretty dramatic sky by English standards! I just happened to have the camera with me and the wheatfield looked so bright by contrast that I had to grab a photo.

A couple of seconds later the cloud had come right over...no chance of getting haylage done this week, for sure - the forecast for the next few days is very unsettled. The grass has grown, though, so it was worth waiting out the last dry spell. Fingers crossed for next week...

The good news is that the streams which run through Rockley, which had mostly been dry since May, very unusually, are all well and truly flowing again this morning(!)
