Glenesk, Glen Mark and Lochlee

Hardy little birds these Dippers, this one on the River Mark on a day after some light snow cover. Also seen in Glen Mark were two Woodcocks, one in trees as expected but the other flew from the snow covered heather. The Kites may be a pair and I think one is the same bird I've photographed before. Other birds seen were Black Grouse, Kestrel, Bullfinches, Buzzards and Mistle Thrush.
