'Y'alright love': crow welcomes tourists to Yorkshire castle – video

A pied crow's hearty greeting at Knaresborough Castle in North Yorkshire has been captured on film by two visitors. Lisa and Mark Brooks heard the bird chattering inside the castle grounds and started filming.

'I found it absolutely hilarious. It must be a local, it has a proper Yorkshire accent. We were there for 15 minutes and it switched between saying 'darling' and 'love'. Other people started coming over and were just in shock,' says Lisa Brooks.
