Dodd Wood & Ospreys

Our last day with Sara & Dan took us to Dodd Wood under the slopes of Skiddaw where there is an Osprey viewing point. These birds, the third biggest in the UK after the Sea Eagle and the Golden Eagle, migrate from Africa to next in a tree between Derwent Water and Bassenthwaite Lake. An us demonstrating the wingspan of these birds whilst standing on a simulated next - the size of a double bed!
