Linlithgow Loch (2)

I know many of you loved the coots fancy feet yesterday so here's another photo!

Then a lovely pair of tufted ducks - the male is the black and white one of course! Notice the tuft on his head!



and a few scenes from around Linlithgow Loch!

  2. The tufted ducks are adorable. The Linlithgow Castle however, looks cold and forbidding. Is it abandoned or maybe haunted? (Maybe it's just having a bad day.)

  7. Thanks everyone! Ms Sparrow - its the effect of the light on the castle I think! It's a major tourist attraction!

  8. Nice shots, Juliet. I've always loved Coots, ever since I used to watch them with fascination, as they darted about a mill-pond we passed on my way to Infants School.

  9. I can't imagine even being able to see a castle. Incredible. One day I shall see one.

  10. Beautiful images!~ And I do love the coots. In Louisiana, the Cajuns call them Poule d'eau. I think that's roughly "water chickens"! Maybe it's because of that ungainly way they take flight.

  11. Wonderful shots of the ducks and coots! I would love to see the Tufted Duck. The castle looks beautiful. Castles are cool, I have visited Windsor Castle, it is amazing inside. Wonderful photos. Have a great weekend.
