Jayne and I have just had a couple of days in Keswick in the Lake District. During our time, we visited the
Forestry Commission's Whinlatter Forest Park, hoping to see some
Red Squirrels. Unfortunately, we drew a blank with the squirrels, but we did enjoy a lovely walk, and managed to spot some
Crossbills (male and female), in the woodlands.

Here's a picture of one of the many waterfalls in the park, and a Common Gull that we saw feeding with dozens of Black-headed Gulls, Mallards, Canada and Greylag Geese on Derwentwater.
