The white-browed woodswallow (Artamus superciliosus) is a medium-sized (~19 cm) passerine bird endemic Australia. The white-browed woodswallow has very distinctive plumage consisting of white brow over a black head with the upper body being a deep blue-grey and with a chestnut under body. The females are paler than the males. The white-browed woodswallow has a bifurcated (divided) tongue like most woodswallows.
White-browed woodswallows are highly nomadic travelling in pairs to flocks from hundreds to thousands of birds. They often wander irregularly around inland Australia, usually heading north for winter in the Northern Territory and central Queensland, and south in spring for nesting. White-browed woodswallows regularly associate with flocks of the masked woodswallows.

Seen from high on the side of Burnbank Fell, above Holme Wood.
Though the Fangs Brow bridleway is generally known as a 'coffin road', supposedly used to transport the dead from remote Loweswater to the parent priory of St Bees for burial, that's more romantic than credible: Loweswater has had its own consecrated cemetery since 1281, and this is more likely to be a mining road.
Besides, there's a perfectly adequate low-level road along the eastern side of the lake, at ~125 m asl, so why climb to ~300 m asl? Even if this track predates the road, why? And had no-one heard of boats?
Darling Fell, part of Loweswater Fell *, is on the left of Loweswater, tapering away to the hamlet of Loweswater not quite visible in the middle of the valley confluence; it's ~900m from Maggie's Bridge, the furthest visible point on the sunlit track. Incidentally, note the hawthorn (or blackthorn?) tree at the southern end of the lake. At the right of the image is Raven Crag, at the base of Melbreak and overlooking Crummockwater.
The big hill in the background is Grassmoor (852 m). To its immediate left is Whiteside (707 m), and behind that, ~7 km away, Ladyside Pike (703 m). Wandope (772 m) is visible around the right of Grassmoor, though its parent peak, Crag Hill (839 m), is out of view. To the right is Whiteless Pike (660 m).
The rounded hill in the distance (actually only 9¾ km away) is Robinson (737 m).
*: according to the OS 1:25,000 map, anyway. According to the 1:50,000 map, 'Loweswater Fell' is an entirely different hill!
