Following my recent
disparaging comments on the November weather, today provided sunshine, blue
skies, and cool still air, demanding to be taken advantage of with a walk, and
I chose a section of the Teesdale Way from Blackwell to Croft along one side of
the river then back to Blackwell through fields on the other side; stopping to
eat my packed lunch on the wide bridge at Croft-on-Tees (to give it its full
name) I gazed upstream and caught a glint of iridescent turquoise and red on a
riverbank tree bough that resolved itself into a kingfisher for a few seconds
before disappearing into the bushes in a swooping flash of blue.
