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.

Bright blowy day. Ringlet Butterfly or two (saw my first ringlet of year yesterday), a lone swift about the cairn. Lots of common spotted-orchids.
A father’s day walk in Glen Finlas
Had a nice walk along the canal this morning.
Had a nice walk around some of the Campsies yesterday. Quite a contrast between the flora & fauna of the pipetrack at the start and the bare hills. Map, pictures and notes:

A walk around Ardinning Wildlife Reserve this morning. The sky was clear! Frost had got rid of the mud problem. Bright & Still. How different from the recent rain & gloom. Even 8 weeks after I tested positive, the cold made my chest tight & I don’t feel fit.
We had a short walk and a picnic today. First bright day this week. Ardinning was autumnal. Saw what was probably the last dragonflies of the year.
