Coniston Herdwick by Andy Holden, on Flickr
I expected to hear the evocative calls of Ring Ouzels high on the Coniston fells..but to no avail..so I had to mek do wi' a Herdwick ewe for a 'wildlife' snap
Saw a badger disappearing into its sett not far from the summit of Buckden Pike on Monday while climbing up from the Walden valley.
Finally saw my first swallows of the year on a recce of Leg 2 of the CWR yesterday. They were perched on a fence before they took off.
Finally got a good picture of my resident woodpecker...
now to find those ring Ouzels

Heard a fair few, and got glimpses of, Cuckoo's up on the West Highland Way last week. Also heard a couple Woodpecker.
I saw a small deer last night with what I think was an injured hind leg. Then, later on, whilst sat on Caw waiting for the runners to appear in the race, I saw fox wandering about below me for 5 or 6 minutes!
Stolly and I came across this stoat up a tree during our gorgeous run around Oxenber and Wharfe woods today. I expect it was looking for a bird's nest to raid!
