We had planned today to walk one of our favourite circular walks at Malham taking in the impressive scenery of Janet's Foss,Gordale Scar and Malham Cove,but unfortunately the weather threw a spanner in the works and it peed down while we were at Malham Cove.
We did manage some decent bird sightings along the walk though,which included 2 singing male Dippers and 2 other birds,3 Grey Wagtail,2 Raven,Peregrine and a lovely juvenile Stonechat near Janet's Foss.
After some well earned lunch after our soaking,i dropped Tracey and Clara back at the cottage,i quickly got changed and then i drove over to Burnsall and walked up to Linton Falls and back.
The walk along this stretch of the Wharfe,is my favourite riverside walk i've ever done,with some truly stunning scenery and usually some nice birds.
Today was no exception as i managed to see 4 Spotted Flycatcher,1 Little Egret,a whopping 19 Goosander,1 singing male Dipper,2 Kingfisher and 2 Green Woodpecker to name but a few.
The following are a selection of photo's from the day.
