Walthamstow Safari Park



The aftermath from last weeks fires that broke out over on Wanstead  Flats. The BBC reported that over 220 fire fighters tackled the blaze while the Evening Standard claimed that 100 hectares of grass were alight with 40 fire engines at the scene.  I took a stroll up there, post fire and with the dry grass and yet another day hitting the 30c mark. It did feel like you were stepping into a safari park.

No to be confused with Donald Trump’s hair.  The dry grass on Wanstead Flats 

Scorched running track 

Urban desert

Shame to see a lot of bottles ,old and new laying around the area. 

Lost a shoe 

Like a scene from Star Trek

Good to see Mother Nature repairing itself
