We've had further snow over last night and today giving us a total of somewhere around 4" - though the wind has redistributed much of it into drifts - and there's more to come over the next couple of days. Fortunately, the temperatures so far have held up, so this afternoon we took our first walk from our new home in a not unpleasant 2C.
We followed a track up into the Beinn Bhraggie forestry meeting no-one but pleased to be greeted by a....
....red kite which, having flown over us, settled in the top of a tree to inspect us. It then took off and....
....circled us several times, coming very low overhead before flying away southwards. We hardly ever saw a red kite where we lived at the other end of Golspie yet we've seen this one twice, so there's a good chance that it's resident here.
