Black Mountains.
A view across the Wye Valley from below Hay Bluff. The white blobs on the hillside are of course the inevitable sheep. I would be surprised if anyone could travel to Wales and not see some sheep.

Black Mountains.
This view is from below Gospel Pass looking North West out over the Wye Valley. A small road goes through the Gospel pass and leads into the Vale of Ewyas to the South-East.

Vale of Ewyas.
Looking North along the valley from near Llanthony, towards Capel-y-Ffin and the 1800 feet high Gospel Pass. The River Honddu flows through this valley but a word of caution if you look for this river on a map. There is another River Honddu which flows through Brecon from the north to join the River Usk. Don't confuse the two!

Snowdrops (Galanthus nivalis).
These were in a small village called Llanigon, about two miles South-West of Hay-on-Wye, in mid February.
