Iciles
It has been bitterly cold over the past days on Exmoor, creating a magical landscape.

Icicles by our Babbling Brook this morning. Love the one with the piece of bracken encased in ice. Near Challacombe.

Evening Walk
Great colours on this evening’s walk – from the greens of the moss on the trees in Barton Wood to the quality of the light looking across the Bristol Channel to Wales.

Winter at the Valley of Rocks
Helwell Bay
The beach between Watchet and Doniford is home to some of the earliest ammonite fossils recorded in Britain.
The red and green striped rocks on your left are Mercia Mudstones, dating from a time when the landmass was part of an ancient desert near the hot equator, similar to the Sahara today; on your right are grey mudstones belonging to the Helwell Marls. These marls are the youngest Jurassic rocks exposed on the Somerset coast and date from around 200 million years ago, when sea levels rose and Watchet was submerged in shallow seas. Here you will find some of the earliest ammonite fossils recorded in Britain.
Love Watchet
Lewis Winter took the kids for a walk on 3 February, enjoying the sunshine, and came back with these photos:

Tall Trees at Nutcombe Bottom
Did you know that England’s largest trees grow on Exmoor? Nutcombe Bottom, situated not far from Dunster on the road to Timberscombe and Wheddon Cross, is a popular walking and picnic site, featuring the “Tall Tree Trail”.
Here you can find a plantation of Douglas fir trees dating back to 1876 – the largest tree was 60.5 metres when it was last measured in 2009. Its trunk has an estimated weight of 50 tonnes with a diameter of 1.74. metres.
Gillian Wells was there and shared these photos with us.
