Sunshine in the Carse of Gowrie

Another one in a (very) occasional series subtitled "Who needs Tuscany?"

I joined a walking group for their regular Monday morning walk and lunch, this time from St Madoes. It was delightfully warm once the low cloud burnt off, and I really enjoyed the company.

I'm still practicing my macro photography, and learning something new every day. Mrs P found a tiny bright green beetle in the house. It was only later that I realised that it had been caught in a net curtain, and consequently was covered in fibres. How do you clean a beetle  that is less than 5mm long? (See extra photo.)
