Today, I got an early bus to the writing group in Lochend so I could walk round the park.
I wanted to see the yellow flag irises which are always lovely here at this time of year
But the real attraction today were the waterbirds and their youngsters
The mute swan cygnets are adorable
and so are the mallard ducklings
while this young coot is just about growing into it's feet
For 30 Days Wild
The yellow irises are pretty and I like all the waterfowl. Pretty swans and the Coot has neat looking feet. Have a happy day!
