Squirrel playground
We went to Threave Gardens today. We were very taken with them, and would love an opportunity to return. A delightfully relaxing garden. Tidy, but not overly manicured.
We spent a significant part of our time there gazing out of the hide at this squirrel playground. We saw lots of birds, including a nuthatch and a greater spotted woodpecker. And eventually we were rewarded with a brief visit from a red squirrel. He didn't use the playground, or eat any food. He had a brief drink from the pool. Lovely to see, but the only photo I managed before he left (over the top of the hide by the sound of it) is the one in extras.
We then had to leave, to meet some friends/ex colleagues in Kirkcudbright. It was lovely to meet them, and we had a pleasant walk around and a cup of coffee sitting outside a cafe.
This evening is cooler, with some rain, and we may get more rain tomorrow.
