We started our walk at the north edge of the village, along lanes and through fields and woodland. Nature abounds at this time of year, and our entire walk was accompanied by beautiful birdsong.

Thank you for another wonderful video showing beautiful nature that we all depend on for our health and our Planets health.

[@walkingwithjohnanddiana]

Thank you - we are pleased you enjoyed it. You are correct, we all depend on nature but, sadly, this fact is not recognised by all.

It’s a treat when one of your videos is posted! I loved this early morning walk through the West Sussex countryside- the birds like to sing in the early morning! And it looked dry underfoot for a change. Thanks for an enjoyable stroll!

[@walkingwithjohnanddiana]

Thank you for your kind comments, Diana. We are pleased you enjoyed it. You are right, the birdsong was amazing, and no wading through mud!

Another jewel ! I used to go on group walks around Slindon, especially when the local farmer had the display of pumpkins in autumn. Grateful thanks, Brian from Chichester.

Thank you for your comments, Brian, and for watching. Not sure if the pumpkins are still grown there. It really is a beautiful part of West Sussex.

I just love Slindon. Pretty, peaceful and unspoilt. I have had some lovely holidays there staying at the Camping & Caravan site on National Trust land. As always, Thank you for another lovely video.

Thank you for your comments, Sue, and for watching. It really is a beautiful area, especially up on the downs.

Thank you for another lovely video. The videography, as always, was superb - I'm sure I could smell the honeysuckle! I've never seen a woodpecker filmed at a bird feeder before, so you did well to catch that, as well as the more "natural" shot later. Back in the late 1940s, my grandmother used to take me and my sister to Slindon woods to go "nutting", and we would gather quite a lot of hazelnuts. I'm not sure whether that was actually permitted or not. Good to see that the village still has its pond. I hear that far too many villages have lost their traditional ponds, which add so much to the English rural scene.

Thank you for your comments, Jim. I think the woodpeckers, like most birds, are opportunists, so a bird feeder is an easy option! We think it was drinking rather than eating from the tree.
Not sure about the "nutting"; I suspect the National Trust would take a dim view of this now!
From the information board adjacent to the pond, it looks like much effort has gone in to maintaining it and keeping it healthy. A few years back it looked anything but. Thank you for watching, as always.
