A Walk along the Wall

Sunday 20th February a walk along the wall (figure of speech as walking on the wall is not allowed) a dusting of snow in places and rather dull and gloomy same as my other visits in the past couple of years, walked from Steel Rigg car park east to the Pennine Way north on the way then headed back west to the car.
Bird life mainly in the form of Corvids with a single F Gooseander 2 Mute Swans and a pair of Mallard on Crag Lough and later a flock of Skylarks .
Stopped at Grindon lough on the way back no sign of any Whitefronts, plenty of Teal & Wigeon 6 Barnacle a few Pinkfeet, Canada and mainly Greylag, this was mid afternoon but it was still dull the scope only magnifying how dull it was.
One of the Milecastles photos are not in order but it just gives the idea
