The popular peregrine falcon viewpoint returns to Malham Cove this weekend following a pause due to the coronavirus pandemic.
People will once again be able to view the peregrines - the fastest animal in the world which have nested at the cove for 30 years.
The viewpoint, which allows visitors to watch the falcons through telescopes, and last took place in 2019, is part of a long-running partnership between the Yorkshire Dales National Park Authority and the RSPB.
The free viewpoint will be run from 10.30am to 4.30pm on Friday, May 19 and Saturday, May 20; again on June 16 and on June 17, and on July 21 and July 22.
Mark Corner, the national park's member champion for the natural environment, said: “The Yorkshire Dales National Park is a great place to see wildlife and Malham Cove is perhaps the best spot to see peregrine falcons. This is the 30th year that they’ve been nesting here.
"Following a pause in the Malham Peregrine Project during the Covid years, our staff and volunteers are very much looking forward to helping people once again witness the wonderful spectacle of falcons raising their family on the cove face.”
