Clackmannanshire Bridge and The Ochils

Driving over the Clackmannanshire Bridge today I spotted the elusive egret near one  of the water pools. We decided to park the car nearby and go egret hunting. Got to where I was sure I had seen it ,  but no egret. We then took another path and John spotted it  near a ditch just over the tussocky grass in this shot.....honest!!

Delighted to have seen the egret , we returned to the car and spoke to a very nice lady who was parked next to us. Guess what?....another Blipper! Nice to meet you, Val , and have a chat ( and a wee moan about the new Blipfoto!!)
