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:

Had a walk around the Glen Douglas trio today. Most “up” since I had covid. Photos & notes on the walkmap
Kilpatrick – Loch Humphrey: A bright sunny day, little breeze & hardly a cloud.
Hawthorn in full flower. A woodpecker flitting.
Cuckoos calling & couple seen in the distance. Plenty of butterflies.
Trees in leaf, just the ash lagging. Bracken & ferns unfurling.
Back To Glen Douglas. On a hill for the first time since last summer. Somewhat puffed: Notes and map:

Lucifer’s Loch. Strange name, named on Google maps, not OS or open street. Had a walk this morning around the back of Jaw & Cochno: map & pics.
Headed for Glen Douglas today only to find the car park for walkers filled with campers (there is only space for 4 cars) So diverted to nearby Glen Finlas.
Beautiful day, notes, map & photos walkmap.
