Had a busy week this week, so I am only just posting a few bits from RSPB Loch Leven last weekend, while Jo & Jimmy were up. It was quite a windy day, so the birds were keeping pretty hidden snf tuckrd away:
So some Whooper and Mute Swans,
Other birds seen; Goldeneye, Tufted Duck, Wigeon, Teal, Grey Heron, Mallard and the usual woodland birds.
We have only been out for a couple of short outings this week, the first was just down to Lochore to the hide and NR there, it was pretty quiet apart from a Great White Egret showing reasonably well from the hide:
Otherwise it was just Mallard and Teal on the pool. It was pretty quiet in the wood too, with nothing much to report.
Yesterday we went to Kinghorn for a bit of Dolphin and Whale watching in the Forth, but as usual, they didn't turn up for us although we did get about a dozen distant Long-tailed Ducks, which was very nice, our first of the Autumn.
We popped down to the harbour car park at Pettycur just in case, but again nothing although this Kestrel put on a nice show:
So staying away from wildlife again and going for some autumn colour at Branklyn Garden (SNT) in Perth on Thursday:
Spent some time in the back garden the other night taking a few photos, it's not birds or wildlife, but it was up in the sky, so that counts! 😂
