Had a quick walk around the Kilpatrick moor to the Slacks Trigpoint and back. Overcast with a fairly strong breeze. Autumn seems to have started. Saw a couple of Red Admirals when the sun tried to get through.

A cuckoo kept ahead of us on the way up to the dam. A one point going down into the grass and then onto a rock with a large wooly bear in its beak.
A dozen Red deer on the way up from the dam.
At around 11 am, rain expected turned out to be snow, a cold half an hour. Brightened up a little after that.
