Burdiehouse Burn Valley Park

It was a lovely spring day for a walk in Burdiehouse Burn Valley Park today. We heard the first chiffchaffs of the year, a true sign of spring (Chiffchaffs are migratory, coming over to the UK for the summer from their wintering grounds in Africa.)

repeating its name
in case we'd forgotten it -
first chiffchaff.

Hi Juliet,

A sure sign that it is Spring when the birds come back to your part of the world. Such a great place to spend some time.
Enjoy the weekend

Hi, from New Zealand as we go into autumn. Oh, how I'd love to visit Scotland again. Appreciated your haiku.
