Outlines on the Tay

A short walk today over Kinnoull Hill - unusually without the children in tow. I had always thought that Kinnoull Hill was somewhat devoid of wildlife; actually it turns out that there's plenty, just that the kids scare it all away before we get anywhere near it! Hundreds of birds are up there, some seen, many more heard, then pausing by the pond I saw deer, and saw two red squirrels chasing each other round and round a tree-trunk. The Tay looked fantastic from the cliffs on the southern side of the hill, the tree-line on the near bank curiously parallel to the reflection of the tree-line on the far bank.
