Saturday morning anticlockwise circuit of Barden moor as part of my Spine Flare training. The moorland birds were all present, with Golden Plover, Greylag geese, and loads of curlew. Even a Buzzard up on the moor. Ran past the remains of a duck, plucked and eaten. Looked like a peregrine victim - feathers and down everywhere. Even better very few people and some sun. So glad I can run the moors to experience all this. Interesting chat with the local mole catcher who said they only breed once a year and now is the time. Loads of Chiffchaff in the local nature reserve this morning and a pair of Mandarin on the Wharfe.
