A tranquil lake under a clear blue sky, bordered by trees and low shrubbery

Ardinning this afternoon. Very sunny & bright. A few butterflies, mostly peacocks & some orange tips. A couple of peacocks spiralled up high. Cuckoos calling. At the bench beside the loch we heard a big splash. Looking round through the bushes we saw an osprey come out of the water & fly off.

Short walk on the Kilpatrick Braes this afternoon. Warmest day of the year so far. Quite a few butterflies, peacocks and Orange Tips around. Lots of wee flowers. The usual suspects singing in the trees, a grouse & stonechat on the moor. Larks singing. #bloomscrolling #bloomstrolling

Took the short walk to Greenside reservoir this morning. Lots of spring happening,  bird song, especially chiffchaff & willow warbler. Heard blackcaps (confirmed with merlin) and finally saw some. A cuckoo calling, the first this year. A few butterflies around including one small tortoiseshell.
