Here in Sud Gironde smoke from the forest fires gave the impression of early morning mist but the smell was very unpleasant as was the fine ash in the air. Our thoughts are with all those who have been evacuated and of course our courageous Sapeur Pompiers.

I concur OBR, I was woken by the smell of smoke at 4am and our morning walk at 6am was under a heavy smoke cloud, we’re 60km plus east. My eyes have struggled to cope with it throughout the day and I have nothing but admiration for the Sapeurs-pompiers and others who have strived to combat these fires and sympathy for those people who have been affected in any way.

My thoughts are also with the poor wildlife, devastated in these afflicted areas.

Me too. Whilst large animals might be able to move away quickly in some places, it's the little creatures and insects that can't.
