A grey face in the crowd

Yesterday morning I did a long run on the flat, so this afternoon I suggested to Mr hazelh that he accompany me around Arthur's Seat for something shorter. Given the weather (cold and very windy) this was probably not the best idea, but Mr hazelh was happy to go along with it. I really struggled against the wind on the way up: at one point I was almost completely out of breath even though I was only "running" at walking pace!

Nonetheless, I made it round in one go, and afterwards went and had a chat with the swans. I like the way that this cygnet has wheedled his way in with the big boys.
