30th & 31st May. During the late spring bank holiday, Andy M walked a number of the paths around the Abingtons, encompassing the village centres, the ORC and LSA, Sluice Wood and Granta Park, Cambridge Road and the Roman Road, joining them up into two loops. Watching birds as he went as part of the ANW Bird Survey, he also took a few photos along the way.
