Nature bites back


Well, sunny weekend camping in the forest of bowland. What a little jem, despite the fact that its in wankyshire (Lancs).

Cracking 15 mile walk in glorious weather, stumbled across a footpath closed because of the potential injury to walkers from, of all things, eagle owls!

Plenty of wildlife up here, more curlews than I've ever seen, woodpeckers, trout in the smallest streams.

While cooking breakfast, we were subjected to an aerial bombardment of blue tit fledgings. Indeed, one hit the car door and nearly ended up on the stove. It managed to seek sanctuary on the roof of the tent. Bullet tooth Tony had to move swiftly to rescue it to a nearby wall. Hope it makes it.
