On Saturday we had a lovely walk around Blackford Pond (where we saw a Kingfisher, a first for the pond, at least in our experience) and into the Hermitage of Braid. Here are some photos:
The photo above shows Blackford Pond, the photo below shows the Braid Burn, which flows through the Hermitage.
Yesterday, I carried out my weekly patrol, picking litter and recording wildlife along the Water of Leith, where I saw another Kingfisher (not uncommon along the river, but always lovely to see)! Kingfishers rarely pose for my camera, so here's a photo of the area where I saw the Kingfisher. If you look carefully you may be able to see a Grey Heron...
If you click on the image, you should get a larger version. Clue: the heron is in a tree.
