Corstorphine Hill

Cycled along Water of Leith walk way from Slateford Road to Murrayfield, then by the cycle path around Carricknowe golf course and up to Corsporphine Hill. Warm, bright day for mid April

Butterflies everywhere - at least ten Small Tortoiseshells along the riverside, then two Commas and a Peacock on the hill. Two further 7-Spot Ladybirds today - seems to be a good year for them so far.

Blackcap singing by the golf course and very noisy Jay on the hilltop.
