Nature at Inverleith Pond

A very grey day today, however before it rained, went to feed the swans and ducks at Inverleith pond. We got the specially purchased (going cheap!) loaf of bread along with 4 old buns out and were almost trampled over by a multitude of swans, ducks, gulls and everything else with wings!

Inverleith is an inner suburb in the northern part of Edinburgh, Scotland, on the fringes of the central region of the city. It is an affluent suburb. Its neighbours include Trinity to the north and the New Town to the south, with Canonmills at the south-east and Stockbridge at the south-west. Like a great many places in and around Edinburgh, the name comes from the Scottish Gaelic Inbhir Lìte, meaning "Mouth of Leith", such is the case with Inverness, meaning mouth of the River Ness etc. Some documents refer to the area as "Inner Leith".
