There's a long way to fall
After all the years of waiting
I'm gonna show them all....

Three Crossbills came down for a drink but only one perched in the light! I rather liked the silhouettes of the other two, showing their crossed bills.
Many thanks to all who take the time to view, comment or fave my images.
A March sunset up on Newbiggin Crag.
I spent a good few hours wandering around the plateau looking for some new compositions, but ended up back near the top of the plateau, here. I was hoping to line the cracks in the limestone up with the setting sun and the tree. They were slightly out but, I still liked the composition.
