Glencorse 23 September 2018
This outing was cancelled by the fishery management on 19th September, based on weather forecasts… which turned out to be inaccurate!
Lake of Menteith, 01 October 2018
A good autumnal day and good sport with dries.
Crossbill Crow
Spotted this guy along the cycle path at the Warriston Crematorium area. As well as being partly leucistic (as many Edinburgh crows are), he has a more significant mutation, which is referred to as ‘crossed-bill syndrome‘. It seems to be quite common in birds, and I would be inclined to suspect it was the origin…
Buchanty Spout 21 September 2018
An early visit, after missing most of them last year when they all seemed to go up in September, and getting good water height following big rain, 2 days previous. Decent numbers leaping. All shot with an 85 mm f1.4 IS lens.
Cycle Path incidentals
Various sights while wandering the cycle paths, Victoria Park, Starbank Park.and Warriston Cemetery…
Graffiti plaques…
… under the bridge at Warriston Gardens, and a ‘graffiti wall’ at Chancelot Mill…
