A break in the weather gave a rare blue sky opportunity to visit the Cheviots where the forecast was slightly better than the Pennines.

So I took the chance to try and bag another couple of Northumbrian Deweys but only had enough time to bag the one.

I came off the hill a slightly different way and thought there was a permissible path to Linhope Spout, only it wasn't permissible. I ended up having to trespass through someone's garden (again) in order to get onto a proper right of way... or face walking back up the hill and following the tarmac road.

As I was now quite close to Linhope Spout, I made the slight detour to visit it once more.

Overall a nice day for some quiet contemplation alone in the hills.

For those curious about the crows... the gamekeepers catch them in order to control their numbers because they eat the eggs of other birds (aka pheasant and grouse eggs).
