The postcard this week is taken along one of my favourite walks - the coast path between Portreath and St. Agnes. With my usual detours to take photos the walk was approximately 8.5 miles, and there were several interesting sites along the way.

This is the perfect time of year to do this walk as the cliffs are covered in bright purple heather and yellow gorse. The wildlife was also fantastic and my walk allowed me to see numerous birds, including Swallows, a couple of Kestrels and even a Peregrine Falcon on a nest.
