Hope for Dunlin as Rare Wading Birds Found Breeding in Pennines

I'm staying in a campsite in my tiny tiny campervan , on my way up to Scotland. The campsite is near the North Pennines, on a farm. It's a tiny campsite, and it's a working farm, with horses right next to where I'm set. Really lovely!

I've started walking south of the Tyne with some friends who live in Yorkshire, today's walk was great but the highlight undoubtably fantastic views of 4 black grouse on an inbye field. They looked like they were lekking, flashing tail feathers and wings, but I thought they only did that at dawn?

New server naming scheme idea: old local miners’ names for different rock/mineral layers.

Leadbitter, Lonage Old Engine and Ellen’s No 2, for example

Finally got access to a copy of Geology of the Northern Pennine Orefield and it's going to be a good (if hard) read. Refreshing to see a field in which a book written in the 1940s, using data from the 1880s, is still largely up to date (in contrast with *anything* in the modern tech industry). Hopefully it'll inform my walks in the North Pennines a bit better

Cauldron Snout & Cronkley Scar at the heart of the #NorthPennines AONB, is a “must do” Teesdale walk. It is an impressive waterfall beneath Cow Green Reservoir, perhaps more impressive than better known High Force. Details at tinyurl.com/394j6baa
