Morning in Upper Teesdale

Such a good morning today so I headed up to the top end of Teesdale for a short walk with the dogs. Spring is definitely upon us and there is an abundance of wildlife in this remote part of the dale. Even as I crossed Cotherstone Moor there was a chance to snap a handsome Cock Grouse on his patch.

Further up the dale I took the chance to wander down to High Force. it gets busy later in the day but at this time we had it all to ourselves. Not much water tumbling over the Force, in fact I cant recall seeing it as low as this for ages.

As ever, its still an impressive sight.
