   A few more pics from my Okehampton-Chagford #SlowWays walk. I found this lovely boggy meadow. It felt like a secret place, totally surrounded by trees. I’d like to go back & explore more. Lots of devil’s-bit scabious, which seemed to attract the six-spot burnet moth. In the margin of another field was this hogweed bejewelled with red soldier beetles. Also seen (but too rubbish photo) was a roe deer & fawn!
