Lake District (Day 2)

Lake District Lake District
A morning family walk (again in good weather), around Latterbarrow, Witherslack. Several Buzzards were seen as well as Northern Marsh Orchid and Early Purple Orchid.

In the afternoon we drove north to Thirlmere looking for Red Squirrels. None were found (indeed not much was) apart from a Spotted Flycatcher and a probable Merlin.

Tawny Owls were calling in our Hawkshead garden at dusk, but couldn't be seen.
