So after SnappyMac posting his lovely red squirrel pic....I WANTED ONE lol
Today it was dry so off we went down to Threave Gardens & Nature Reserve where SM recommended.
We chose to visit the nature reserve 1st....
Some nice views of the castle although its not accessible
Fungi
Some Geese far away
One Goldfinch youngster
I must admit it's a lovely reserve but felt I left more in the garden than I saw here :-(
Ano am spoilt!!!
It was a nice walk anyhow and saw a Buzzard on way back to the car
And some nice cows
So back in the car and a few minutes later we were walking up the forest in hope of seeing the Red Squirrels.
And we were not disappointed.....
And this one is my favourite as it was the very 1st one I took
Mission accomplished ;-)
Thanks for looking
(Pardon the Scottish Accent)
Who can't love a red squirrel....
That looked a good day out. If you're interested, the cattle look like Belted Galloway cattle, a native breed no less.
