Nearly chinstrap weather in places this morning in #Royden. Coffee in a very pretty paper cup at Benty’s (dishwasher kaput). Ducklings also out for their morning circuit.

A hillside covered in green and purple vegetation, including heather, with trees in the background under a cloudy sky. Green plants with numerous dark, elongated seed pods growing along a dirt path in a natural outdoor setting. A paper cup with a farm-themed design sits on a weathered wooden picnic table in an outdoor setting with grass, trees, and picnic benches in the background. A family of ducks, including ducklings, is swimming in the water near a pink flower blooming on a branch.
