Corstorphine Hill again!

 Yesterday, we walked around Corstorphine Hill again! It's one of our favourite places to walk. Also, I had, earlier in the week carried out a butterfly survey there, when the weather was only just good enough to do such a survey. Yesterday, we started our walk thinking that the weather might be better. So we started in the Walled Garden, where the butterfly transect route starts

 We saw a few hoverflies in the garden, including this Bog Hoverfly (Sericomyia silentis):

We didn't see any butterflies at all and soon realised that the weather wasn't going to be good enough for a survey, so we didn't keep to the survey route and just walked where we wanted to around the hill.

At another part of the hill, we were impressed to see this web of a Funnel Web Spider
