The RSPB's bird hide at Udale Bay on the Black Isle. This fairly new fancy one replaced the former one. I don't why it needed replaced, but the new one is a lot bigger. It's best use is as a shelter for watching the birds from, as the birdlife can see people milling about outside, and doesn't come nearby at all. Which kind of defeats the purpose of having the hide. To my left, out of frame, is this bench. Bring good binoculars or a telescope...

Lovely sunny day. Chilly in the shade. Even saw some patches of snow at the side of the road, on the highest point of the cycle over to here. The Blip was a hurried snap, as I'd just arrived, and saw the cyclists approaching. I'm surprised it came out at all.

First ever use of the famous Kodak Tri-X film. Few more rolls in the fridge to go too.
