Had to pop in to town for a few bits so had a walk around the harbour. The first thing I noticed in the carpark were the oily puddles!
We live at Keepers Cottage, on The North Rhins, SW Scotland and because of its situation and the variety of wildlife that can be seen in and around the cottage, I decided to keep a wildlife diary. We also enjoy regular walks in beautiful Dumfries and Galloway and beyond which I also record here, with photos and few words.

A Cold Start to the Year 2010 in Stranraer
Had to pop in to town for a few bits so had a walk around the harbour. The first thing I noticed in the carpark were the oily puddles!
Sandhead to Cairnweil Hill 31st December 2009
A lovely sunny day although very cold, Decided on a walk to work off some of the Christmas food and still a tetrad to do for the BTO Bird Atlas. Parked near the shore at Sandhead cut through up the hill past the school and then followed the roads until we reached the footpath to Cairnweil Viewpoint. Lovely Dry Stane Dyke
We returned back down the path, there is a pond where we saw a heron and reed buntings in the willows
Walked back along the shore, a greenshank feeding with the redshanks, rock pipits , oystercatchers and plenty of gulls
