Beautiful Evening on Arthurs Seat

We had a lovely walk up Arthur's Seat yesterday evening. Everywhere looked beautiful

We had hoped to see some swifts gathering to catch insects before their long migration back to Africa but we didn't see any. We did however have a wonderful view of a kestrel hovering over the grass, obviously with its eye on a vole or a mouse.

This caterpillar of the cinnabar moth chose a silly place to eat in the middle of the path

I was very happy to be able to get some reasonably good photos as the light faded - the wonderful Salisbury Crags and the lights of Edinburgh
