Curlew Country

We went for a look at Holwick, from where you can walk across fields to High and Low Forces. Today, we decided to walk up a hill, and take in the view. We were able to look down to Holwick Lodge, country home of Lord Strathmore.

We could hear the curlew, but were astonished and delighted to come across this curlew chick, hiding in the grass. Quick photo before we left him and his mum to the moor.

We'll be back to Holwick another time, and pay a visit to the Strathmore Arms.
