The sky was cloudy and grey with a light breeze when I started out on my daily walk today. I followed my normal route. When I reached Cowslip Lane, a wood pigeon burst out of a round holly bush. This bush is an excellent example of amateur topiary; it really does look good when it’s been trimmed and shaped.
  There are two silver birch trees growing at the end of Foxglove Lane, and the leaves on one of them have turned noticeably more yellow than the other.
  I climbed the steep bank into the recreation ground. This grassy bank is covered with alexander plants when they are in season. All that remained were some woody, brown stalks, now dead and brittle, scattered across the bank.

  A lone corvid was feeding on the cricket pitch grass as I circled the recreation ground’s perimeter—possibly a crow.
  My friendly pitbull terrier was patrolling his garden when I walked by. I think he must have got used to me passing by now.
  I entered the black-painted, iron gate to the cemetery and began to walk around the cemetery pathways.
  I noticed a man lingering under the rookery trees on the cemetery side of the fence. His gaze fixed on the garden, I guess he was a nature enthusiast, although there weren’t any rooks visible in the trees today.

  I left the cemetery and walked along the cemetery road. On my way, I met a young lady walking two dogs on leads. I recognised one as a whippet; the other was a strangely marked dog that was chocolate-coloured, with a patchy white underbelly and patchy white legs. When I asked her what breeds they were, she said one was part whippet and the other was a German short-haired pointer.
  I proceeded along Weybourne Road before turning onto the leisure centre road.    When I reached the recreation ground, I noticed about six rooks on the cricket pitch and another ten rooks on the town football club pitch.
  Two crows were hopping around on the grassy area in Foxglove Lane.
Today I walked for 1.8 miles in 38 minutes.
