Kendal's First Camping Adventure - Day 3 - Nap Time

The sun came out along our Marsh Trail journey, and you never would have guessed that a thunder storm had ravaged this peninsula just hours earlier.

Laura and I took a rest on the side of the trail to soak up some rays and rehydrate.

This was the view looking straight up from our resting place:

As we were resting beneath the shade of the tall blue grass, two little frogs came and sat with us for a while.

Back on the trail after our rest, we finally got some good photographs of a Red Admiral.

See how good his camouflage is? With its wings folded up, this Admiral looks just like a bit of tree bark!

Most of these butterfiles were very shy and flew away before Laura could get our camera focussed on them, but this little guy was so friendly, he actually alighted on Laura's shirt!
