How sweetly the Wharfe comes shimmering along! Here can be seen the white-breasted ousel, and the gay-plumaged kingfisher darting along its shingly course; up the stream trout are leaping; in deeper pools we see them lazily gliding in the sunlight. Yonder, showing its brown head high above the others, is Ramsden Pike, and the hills and rocks above Buckden shut in the range of sight.
Bogg/Wharfeland, 1904
