A wander up Wainstalls...

A lovely afternoon, so a walk about up Wainstalls was called for to take in the views and see if there was any birds or wildlife about..

Managed to snap this Mallard before he flew away

Belting view, you can just about see Studley Pike in the background

I'm lucky to have this in my back yard

I love traditional Yorkshire dry stone walling

Such a peaceful day...

A wander down the track to the lake edge...

...to be greeted by a flock of Canada Geese

Walking back to the car and a Curlew comes in to land..

.. can just see it at the top of the brow, you can hear them whilst walking about

The view walking back up the track

Plenty of grazing sheep about

Back to the garden and a shy Chaffinch landed above my head
