The Yorkshire Dales - Wensleydale and Swaledale

Well I'm back from the Dales and a week of superb weather showing off Wensleydale and Swaledale at their superb best - on the bird front it was great to see at least 4 Spotted Flycatchers even one in our cottage garden but interestingly Aysgarth had no Nuthatches - I'll leave the images and little video to speak for themselves.

A typical Dales pub - the sheep get everywhere

  1. Great shots, the little water falls are lovely. I like the pub with the sheep on the roof, too. :-) Nice to see all the sunshine; we had rain, which we needed, on and off all day.
