A glimpse of “Tarka Country”
Wednesday, August 06th, 2008 | Author: News Team
One of the best nature videos (in our opinion) on YouTube is that showing a year in the life of the River Torridge, sister to The Taw, in North Devon. This being set to one of Ralph Vaughan Williams’ compositions. The courses of the Torridge and Taw form much of North Devon’s “Tarka Trail” - well worth exploring - using the old market town of Barnstaple as your base. The trail is named after Henry Williamson’s creation - Tarka the Otter - which, as it happens, is just one of the creatures to be seen in the video.
