As I walked out this morning I looked up and, behold, a white cross on a blue field. I thought immediately of Scotland! The flag of Scotland is the cross of St Andrew, this is a diagonal cross. The lines aren't made of clouds - they are low vapour trails. They were soon scattered by the wind. Can you see the moon? The vapour from the planes was low but there were very high clouds. They were sparse and thin - they're called "mares' tails". Looking beyond the hedge, we saw the farmer with his baler cutting hay. The bales are very big these days. By the footpath there are traces of work done in the past. Here is an old quarry where stone was cut for building walls or hedges. It is completely overgrown.
