Taken today in The Peak District

I woke up to a great view of the cloud on the hills. This chap obviously thought the same

The area is used by rock climbers. A lot of lessons seem to take place here.

They were happy for me to fly my drone out near them

My wife thinks I have chicken legs. I think they are more of legs of an athlete.

The walk on the previous night didn't finish until around 2200 hrs by which time it was pretty dark.

We had torches/head torches with us though. Did I say it was dark?!

Whilst I was out walking I saw a large bird that looked like a bird of prey flying quite close to people ahead and in the distance from me, with people stood looking up at it. I thought it quite strange that they would fly that close to humans. After it went out of view, I kept on walking. and then saw that it was resting on some guys arm as he was walking off. It was obvious then what it was. A carrion bird.

I'll get my coat.

Joking aside, it wasn't until I edited it now, bringing it out of shadow that I see what it was. Odd to see someone taking their pet parrot out for a walk.

A carrion bird...I was expecting Barbara Windsor or Joan Sims

What horrible places our crowd visit I’m not even remotely envious of visiting any of these beautiful places and enjoying them, as I often say I don’t do envy but if I did I’d be very envious of everyone of those beautiful places ❤️🤣👍
