I made my first trip to the RSPB nature reserve at Loch Leven today.
Only managed to stay a couple of hours, but will be going back again.

That would be a Gadwall drake and BHG, Gary!
Nevertheless, the best take in this post followed
by #4.

The northern Lapwing need to be redone I think.

Nice shots.
We are staying up near Dunfermline tomorrow night, so was going to take a drive up to check it out. The wifes happy because they've Got a cafe

I take it that it's worth a visit then?

Well done on a first

The BHG & Gadwall get my vote, I like the bits of grass included.

Love the goslings racing to take off first.

Goslings are my favourite.
We visited last May (early) and the midges were out.
Plan to go again when I can.
