| Our Wednesday walk today took us to the Parish of Canonbie and two of its more famous Burns the Byerburn and the Rowanburn. It was just a 6 mile section of The Canonbie Walk from the Langholm & Eskdale Walks Booklet. It took in the Fairy Loup which was in spectacular form today as the burn was in flood. |

 |
| The road up through the Fairly Loup was well carpeted in autumn leaves |
 |
| From the path above Rowanburn Head farm the Langholm Hills in the distance were well covered in snow. |
 |
| Tom crosses the Rowanburn and is still managing to walk with a tea cosy on his head. |

| A Buzzard keeps an eye on us from a tree near the path |
 |
| In a field next to this cottage at Rowanburn were these sheep. I am not sure what kind they are but they were very friendly. |
 |
| This hen followed us and eventually Tom fed it with some small bits off his Apple. It looks a fine example of a free range hen in excellent condition and very friendly. We had a coffee at Lang Sandy in Rowanburn and then followed there old railway line down to Rowanburnfoot and back into Canonbie but my phone camera battery had run out so no more photos. We ended up in The Buccleuch Centre for lunch. |
