Camel Green / Highland Water

The sun was out over Camel Green as we followed the meanders of Highland Water. New meanders I might add, or rather 'restored' meanders. Looking around it's hard to imagine that this section of Highland Water was only restored to it's pre-Victorian course 3 years ago, it looks so natural. The signs of heavy machinery are all but gone, plant communities are returning and in a couple more years you'd never know that the stream ever flowed other than where it is.  The woodland which borders Highland Water is coming to life, the trees are nearly in full leaf, blossom colours the Crab Apple trees and all about there's activity seen and unseen but heard. It was a lovely walk in good company, the sort of walk which sets you up for the day.
