A joyous day out #hiking in the #peakdistrict and another 19 miles in my legs.
Chilly to start and windy on the edge but warmed as the day wore on.

Doggo and I enjoyed 10 miles or so around three North Yorkshire reservoirs from Bland Hill today.
Saw Curlews, Lapwings, Oyster Catchers, Red Kites, a Song Thrush and lots of new Lambs!
