After a couple of days of honest toil topping up the UAE fund, I rose early this morning to try for the unusual Corvids in the Dales.
I picked Steve Lawton up at his house at Wetherby around 7 and we reached Settle by 8.30.
After some confusion over which path to take we made our way to the Victoria Cave area. A very scenic area. Tim Isherwood and his wife were also present. They arrived first and Tim soon spotted one of the birds at the base of the screen about 100 yards away...
...and then there were two...
An amazing occurrence and a species that definitely wasn't on the radar! So, I've managed to reach 390 for the County (possibly 391 if the BAIKAL TEAL gets accepted) . Never say never...
