I was working in the area today so on my way home I called in at Ulverston to see a Richard's pipit which has been present for at least a week and probably all winter. Always a great bird, this one showed well first on wires and then later on the ground. I love the long legs and long hind claw in this photo. This was only my 7th Richard's pipit and my first for seven years.
