buzzard on Corstorphine HIll

buzzard rises
into the blue sky -
crows give chase 

Corstorphine Hill, this lunchtime

Good to read about the Buzzards in the sky over Corstorphine. Helen Cruikshank, one time Corstorphine resident and makar, wrote a wonderful poem about the birds on the hill on a walk to her house. There's a fine description of the Wild Geese flying - as a native of Angus she must been very familiar with them!

You're welcome! A bit of a delayed response but I missed this post the first time round. It's nice to find someone else who doesn't just write about central Edinburgh.
