Stonechat on a bracken frond
walkmap

Glen Douglas, started clear, got cloudy. Warm. Lots of tiny wild flowers in the grass. 3 types of heather. Not much fauna, stonechat, a few pipets & larks, a snipe. One ringlet, lone small heath.
Didn’t get round the 3 hills, I got quite puffed going up first so just did 2.

Pretty & pretty exciting walk out to Duncolm this morning. Plenty of flora & fauna. First small heath, painted lady & small copper butterflies of this year. Watch an osprey fishing over Loch Humphrey for a about half an hour (that was the exciting bit).

A 3x3 grid of nature photos around Finlas Water, featuring trees, a deer, birds, snow landscapes, and a map.

Walked part of the Finlas Loop yesterday. Sparking hill day, snow. A lot of deer. Deer seem less inclined to run off in the winter. Fox track all over. A glimpse of an eagle, later watched for 10-15 minutes as it circled back and forth along the skyline above.

From Topleft: Track on Glen Mollochan; Stonechat on bracken; Devil's bit Scabious flower; small group of red deer on hillside; map; eyebright; along Beinn Eich in the clouds; Green-veined White; a pair of green hazel nuts.

Doune Hill & Beinn Eich via Glen Mollochan
Overcast day with a threat of rain later.
Clouds low, on the top of the hill a few times. Quite a breeze higher up.
Quiet, no one else on the hill.
Not much in the way of wildlife, a few deer & the odd raven croak.
