I went hillwalking with my fella yesterday and we spotted two of these lovely little things on the way back down.

I couldn't get very close to them as you can imagine so these are the best pics I have

It was very snowy at the top of Ben Chonzie

The top

This is not a frozen burn, this is the mountain path

I was knackered

But overjoyed to play in the snow

as was Steven

A fun day was had by the two of us and it was lovely to see the mountain hare which I'd never really seen before. I'm also sure the 5 hour 8 mile walk helped shift a few of those extra Christmas lbs.:lol:

It's in Perthshire near Crieff. The start point is at a wee place called Invergeldie which has a farm and not much else.:lol:
