Droplets

Sunday heralded a new weather phenomenon - rain!

OK, rain is not new in Central Scotland at any time of the year, but we had just experienced a rather rare bout of weather when the wet stuff was noticeable by its relative absence. But Sunday was different, with persistent rain throughout. Not by way of a heavy downpour, just a constant shower of the stuff. And it was good. Up to a point.

Rain-jacket on, I headed out for an afternoon walk thinking that the rain would ease off as had been forecast. It didn't, and my walking trousers (and the wearer) got rather wet. But I wasn't complaining. Along to Head of Muir, where I zig-zagged my way up a number of pavements and paths between houses, before finally joining Myothill Road. From there it was a straightforward wet wander home.

Didn't actually see much of the scenery around me, partly because of the low cloud, but mostly because my spectacles were covered in rain droplets. Grabbed a few photos of plants along the way, but most didn't turn out very well.

Haven't posted the obligatory dandelion head photo before now, so that omission has now been rectified.
