As we pulled into the car park, we were met with several older, portly gentlemen all appearing to be in combat fatigues carrying rucksacks…needless to say we didn’t join them but headed off towards our first cache. Our first wildlife spot was this beautiful pair of red kites. We then literally scrambled up a sheer […] [...]
