Loch Leven and Stenton Pond in Monochrome

It's Friday the 6th of September and I'm heading over to Fife for the last ever Leuchars Air Display tomorrow.

Decided to take a break at Kinross for a walk on the shores of Loch Leven.

After arriving at my aunt's house in Glenrothes, I then took a walk down to Stenton Pond to see a fair variety of birds.

Here's a few pictures in black and white.

The first eight are on Loch Leven, the rest on Stenton.

Stenton Pond

I gave up counting the birds on Stenton Pond after reaching a hundred.

I've seen better monochrome pictures but I like the solitary duck with the following wake.

The last ever Leuchars Air Display will be the next post.

To Fife again

Monday 9th August 2010.
Heading over to Glenrothes I've decided to take a break at the Loch Leven nature reserve at Kinross.
It's a showery day,but there's lots of tourists around here.There's a memorial in the cemetery by Kinross House to one Robert Burns Begg,grandson of the bard.

Over on the island is where the fair Mary was imprisoned.
Here's a link to marie-stuart for the story.

Three of us are taking a wee walk up West Lomond today.The forecast is for the showers to pass over....
....not before we get a good soaking though.
It does clear up when we reach the top though.Great views all round.
Back to East Lomond (Falkland Hill) under wispy cloud and Ballo,Harperleas and Holl reservoirs.

Heading to Edinburgh for the day tomorrow.
