Hopefully winter is behind us now and spring is here. Always trying to be armed with my camera I went over Ampleforth Beacon the other morning.I was helping Jack with the dogs and it meant an early start.I took this photo just after 6am.Even for me living here all my life I couldn't think of anywhere in the world I would rather be.Lots of wildlife to be seen that hid away later in the day when the rest of the countryside wake up. It was well worth getting up our of my bed.Maybe you shouldn't take my word for it but come and experience it for yourself.
