Kelpies and a nesting Grebe

Falkirk this week for a visit I had promised Olive for a long, long time and then back to Forfar Loch and Murton to avoid the cloud and cold on the coast today. Not much happening in the heat but a "lost" Pink-footed Goose at Murton.

The Kelpies at Falkirk, with the cables and pylons which to me spoiled the view removed

Sand Martin at Murton Nature Reserve, one of many nesting in the man-made concrete wall

The camera kept focusing on the wall and not the flying birds, this was one of only a few in focus
