At the loch

Such a beautiful day today, sunny and with no wind, and it didn't feel cold at all when walking around the loch.  Lots of birds, ducks, peewits, geese and swans as well as the inevitable gulls, and they were all being fed extravagantly by the many children.   The loch was frozen in quite a few places, and there was fun to be had breaking the ice with sticks and stones.
