I cant get enough of  Dartmoor. Its beautiful and relaxing, great scenery and very peacful. Certainly one of the highlights of living in Devon. There is always the chance of seeing something to photograph and as you may know if you read my blog regularly, I have been having a good time  photographing the Stonechats and other birds.  Today, within just a few minutes I had a Tree Pipit, and a couple of Yellowhammer, both showing beautifully in the hawthorn tree where I had seen them before on a previous visit. 

This is the male Stonechat that I have been concentrating on this last few days.  He is in such a drastic moult that he has completely lost his tail.
