A nice evening, more like summer, so we decided to head for the Pentlands and go for an evening walk. Picked up a couple of provisions on the way out and headed for Flotterstone where we parked the car and set off about 5pm. Lots of swifts and swallows were flying about on this fine evening and we also spotted a heron and a kestrel on our way up the glen. Reached the Loganlea resevoir about 630 and sat down and had our meal overlooking the resevoir which was teeming with fish and a few fishermen in boats trying to catch them!
Spotted more swifts and swallows later as we made our way back down the glen and also noted a few butterflies fluttering about - we are sure they were all ringlets. It was nice to see some butterflies as we have not seen many so far this summer.
Sadly I,ve seen hundreds of butterflies recently.Flattened into the tarmac on a recent bike run :0(
