Read: Small Things Like These by Claire Keegan 📚 ★★★★★
A beautiful wee book that drew me in quietly & has stuck in my mind. Ireland 1985, A gentle slightly troubled man digs deep. “Hunters in the Snow” on the cover seems fitting as the village approaches a snowy Christmas.

I just got a Badger 2040 on a bit of a whim.
A hackable, programmable badge with E Ink® display, powered by Raspberry Pi RP2040.
I’ve only followed the basic tutorials so far & don’t know python but I think this could be an interesting wee device.
My heart is full. Yesterday one of the loves of my life got married. @cmdjohnston & @MTImmonsMusic organised the perfect day for themselves & their guests.

I had a warm short walk around the Kilpatrick braes this afternoon. Quite a few butterflies about including this Small Copper.
Read: The Family Chao by Lan Samantha Chang ★★★★★ 📚
Really loved this engaging & exciting book. Set in a Midwest family run Chinese restaurant using The Brothers Karamazov as a template in a brilliant way. Food to die for, familial murder, racism & the American dream.
Meadow Brown on Thyme, Barassie beach on Friday. A lot of butterflies in the grass between beach & golf course.
It has been a few years since I walked to The Whangie, it got to busy for me as lockdown eased. Glad daughter took me today. Lots of flora, a few birds & a nice lizard on the carpark wall. More on Flickr.

Had a short walk by Jaw Reservoir, yesterday. Quite a few butterflies about. These posed. A lot of ringlets, a few whites and a red admiral did not oblige.
Back to Old Kilpatrick this morning to walk to Duncolm. Notes, photos & map: walkmap
