Curlew Call
The distinctive warning call of the Curlew,our largest wading bird, resounds around the Northern Uplands of the uk in spring & early summer where they return each year to breed
Normally a very wary bird but when they have young chicks nearby they can be quite bold. This one approached just to within a few yards of me,obviously letting me know its young family was nearby.
Needless to say I heeded the warning and left it in peace.
Taken in the Peak District.
