Not sure if this counts as odd or graffiti. From the January walk, on the wall of what was Belvidere hospital

Can any ornithologists out there explain this to me?

If it's a dry day, the pigeons at Knightswood park are everywhere. On the path, in the trees, on the grass .. everywhere.

On a wet day they are nowhere bar on the empty flower beds.

Most odd.

(sorry about the quality, it's a blow up from a phone pic)

I was looking for something else and came across this lot:

Lovely bunch of folk, and very obliging. I didn't feel the need to be "local" at all :)

There was a squad of Morris Dancers in the Clutha a while back, which isn't exactly the kind of place one would expect to encounter them, cat swinging not encouraged. Edinburgh chaps apparently, surprisingly good, don't know how they never crashed into the basement!
