Notes from a Muddy Weekend Walk
It's a lovely sunny day today! Crafty Green Boyfriend and I decided to walk up Wester Craiglockart Hill. We hadn't really thought about how muddy it might be after all the recent rain.
It was tricky to navigate round all the mud, but everything looks lovely in the sunshine!

these earth stars
and these jelly ears, growing on an elder tree, which seems to be their favourite place to grow

It's beginning to feel like Spring, but there's still snow on the Pentland Hills!
All the rabbits must have been keeping warm in their cosy burrows, this one looks as though it's been newly excavated

We had a hare in the snow. We're still in the frozen part of winter!
It does look like Spring is on its way...the fungi are beautiful and I’m impressed that you know them by name!
It's good to get out and about when there is a break from the awful weather the UK has been experiencing recently.
I enjoyed your photographs here.
All the best Jan
