Willow Catkins

I haven't been up to the local loch for ages so I decided that after doing some shopping I would take advantage of the lovely sunny morning and do a couple of circuits. 

The joggers ran past me many times as I enjoyed looking at the bird life on the water. and in the trees. In a few weeks the catkins will have gone, the trees will be covered with leaves and the little birds will be well hidden. 

I heard the little chaffinch (extra) long before I spotted him on the branch ... wish he had been just a little closer.
