I would start my daily walk along a wonderful pathway leading from Studley Castle to Studley church. This beautiful, well-kept pathway is bordered by many healthy shrubs full of wild birds. It runs through three or four fields where many sheep graze. A new woodland has been planted on one side of the pathway with walking trails. This pathway is a small section of the Arden Way.
When I arrived at Studley church, I walked past the new town graveyard, which is right opposite the ancient churchyard. Many grey squirrels are living and thriving around here, and the birdlife is prolific; I have seen many varieties on my walks.
   I usually cross the road from the church and walk across a field to the River Arrow. This river is a favourite place for the local fishing club and there’s a notice on display advising people that it is a private fishery. This was always a breathtaking part of my daily walks and many local people use this field as a dog-walking route from the village.
   The River Arrow is bordered by many beautiful trees and shrubs and it winds around, through the fields. Many sheep from the local farms graze around the river and drink the clean flowing water. I have seen the usual waterfowl, such as mallard ducks swimming in the river and geese feeding in a field.
  My favourite sighting along the riverbanks has been the large white egrets and I have even spotted a grey heron that rapidly flew away as I approached. This is such a beautiful, natural, interesting part of the world.
