Yesterday we had a lovely walk around Arthur's Seat.
Flowers were in bloom everywhere, this view over the wall down the cliff gives an impression of how rich the blooms are in some places
There was Bloody Cranesbill
Rest Harrow
and lots of Vipers Bugloss
We were impressed by the variety of butterflies we saw. We didn't see many individual butterflies but we did see at least one of each of: Painted Lady
Read Admiral
Small Tortoiseshell;
Small Heath;
Ringlet;
Meadow Brown and a couple of Whites (too far away to tell whether they were Large or Small Whites). We also saw a Six Spot Burnet Moth
We spent a few minutes watching a very exciting chase between a
Kestrel and two
Ravens, but weren't able to catch it on camera.
