Ullswater, Patterdale to Howtown

It was my 60th birthday weekend so we decided to spend it in Cumbria. We caught the Ullswater steamer from Glenridding to Howtown and then walked back via Hallin Fell, Hallinghag wood and Sandwick bay. Plenty of redstarts singing, plus a couple of smart pied flycatchers, but no wood warblers.
