At Craiglockhart

Have had a rather tired day after a late night with the rugby returners.
'M' and I made our usual Sunday trip to Craiglockhart Pond to bird watch and take photos.  It was really beautiful there today.  We can report that the first cygnet has now left the pond, I am sure the others will follow shortly.
We were taken by the lone cormorant who was cleaning and then sunbathing itself. 
After that I had a happy few hours at the allotment in the sunshine, picked broccoli and leeks.
