A big walk from Runswick Bay finds us on the cliff-tops looking inland (west) and one of those great skies that only come now and again. I could see the clouds starting to shape and move to this mackerel sky condition that was to herald bad weather to come but not on this walk. The sheep were quite unconcerned.

“A cirrocumulus mackerel sky is made up of wispier, patchier higher clouds. There are no thick lines and the clouds appear translucent. These clouds can run before a front and the accompanying bad weather. Cirrocumulus is often found with wispy cirrus, sometimes known as 'mares' tails' sky’ condition.” - Wiki
