Hay fever sufferers...

don't look at this! The Pine pollen is particularly profuse at the moment and has fallen into the loch and washed up on this shore! Don't know if the Castle dwellers had it but I do know the Wolf had Leprosy. Seems it was quite common in the fourteenth century.
Another glorious day!
Found a pair of Red throated Divers , a Tawny Owl in broad daylight being harassed by a flock of wee birds, Teal, Little Grebes with young, Green Hairstreaks, and Tiger beetles.
