Birthday balloons
Birthday balloons
This bunch of 65th birthday balloons had blown in from somewhere or other and become snagged in the fence on Snarhead Hill - not the first time I've found something like this in a remote spot. Being the fun guy that I am, I popped them and took them away for responsible disposal in a non-moorland setting.
