"Were awe Jock Thamsons bairns".... I know the phrase and I knew Jock Thomson was a real person... What I didn't know was that he was originally from Dailly 😁 #visitsouthwestscotland #onlyinscotland #southwestcoastal300 #southayrshire #ayrshire #gsabiosphere #gsabiospherecommunity https://www.instagram.com/p/CRGpyK-HSU7/?utm_medium=tumblr
It's all kicking off on the bird feeders this afternoon. 😁 #gardenbirdsuk #gardenbirds #eastayrshire #doonvalley #naturephotography #naturelovers #gsabiosphere https://www.instagram.com/p/CQ_YiFpnFRR/?utm_medium=tumblr
Looks like it's a Goldfinch takeover on the feeders just now... #visitsouthwestscotland #southwestcoastal300 #eastayrshire #doonvalley #ayrshire #finch #gardenbirds #gardenbirdsuk #gardenbirdsofbritain #gsabiosphere https://www.instagram.com/p/CQJMrWGHrFD/?utm_medium=tumblr
It appears to be a bumper year for Hawthorn Bloom this year and like everything in Scotland there's all sorts of myth and legends surrounding this particular tree... Known as The Queen of The May, Fairy Bush and a few other names it symbolised re birth in the spring and death in the winter.. I suppose before the discovery of antibiotics a good few jags from the huge thorns it produces would be enough for infection to set in and pack you off to which ever netherworld you believed in. It was also believed to be the home of the fairies.. Not the Tinkerbell type but the kind that lured children away cursed families and destroyed livestock and crops. Brides would wear a garland of Hawthorn to symbolise love and protection and in more modern times "Many haws means mair snaws" seems to be a favorite. Hope that one's wrong 😬 #visitsouthwestscotland #southwestcoastal300 #onlyinscotland #mustseeayrshire #ayrshire #gsabiosphere #gsabiospherecommunity #southayrshire #legends #myths #scotland https://www.instagram.com/p/CP-kmM5n-aT/?utm_medium=tumblr
"Ye Banks and Braes" and all that. The River Doon has to be one of the most famous rivers in Scotland after being immortalised in the poem by Robert Burns. The Drumgrange and Kiers section runs from Dalmellington to Patna through, what was once, the industrial heart of The Doon Valley. Near the village of Waterside you can find still see the delapidated buildings and chimneys which were part of the ironworks and coal washer that used to stand on the site...... #visitsouthwestscotland #onlyinscotland #doonvalley #gsabiosphere #eastayrshire #mustseeayrshire #southwestcoastal300 #river #rivers #ayrshire #riverdoon https://www.instagram.com/p/CP3iTBmJxF-/?utm_medium=tumblr
Tree Bumblebee... Spotted these ones in the garden for the first time a few years ago. A bit of a newcomer in the UK they seem to exist alongside our native species without causing too many problems 😊 #visitsouthwestscotland #southwestcoastal300 #eastayrshire #doonvalley #ayrshire #bee #bees #polinators #gsabiosphere https://www.instagram.com/p/CPjNMXVHbrd/?utm_medium=tumblr
No much happens in Dalrymple these days, but at one point it was at the forefront of aeronautical engineering 🤷♂️ Mora Weir... Mora Weir lived at Skeldon House, wife of James Weir,who was the brother of the first Viscount Weir. Mora was the first woman in Britain to obtain a flying certificate and along with a Spaniard named Juan De La Cierva, made numerous experiments with an Autogyro (fore runner to the helicopter). Mora Weir used Barbieston Holm as her airfield where she built a large hanger to store the aircraft. The first Helicopter flight in Britain took place at Dalrymple on the 7th June 1938 in a Wier W-5. #visitsouthwestscotland #onlyinscotland #doonvalley #gsabiosphere #eastayrshire #mustseeayrshire #southwestcoastal300 #biospherecommunity #aviation #helicopter #autogyro #engineering https://www.instagram.com/p/CPgeyERn5dG/?utm_medium=tumblr
Out a wander with Rudie the Hellhound ( @rudie_the_retriever). It actually feels like summer for a change 😊 #visitsouthwestscotland #onlyinscotland #doonvalley #gsabiosphere #eastayrshire #mustseeayrshire #retriever #goldenretriever https://www.instagram.com/p/CPgGm2InSoB/?utm_medium=tumblr
"What is this life if, full of care, We have no time to stand and stare."....... Sometimes in my haste to find out of the way, interesting nooks and crannies around The Galloway and Southern Ayrshire Unesco Biosphere I forget what I've got in my own wee part of it. The River Doon, literally, at the bottom of the garden. It's looking gorgeous at the moment 😊 #visitsouthwestscotland #onlyinscotland #doonvalley #gsabiosphere #gsabiospherecommunity #eastayrshire #riverdoonwalks #southwestcoastal300 #river #rivers #ayrshire https://www.instagram.com/p/CPdhMynHNEb/?utm_medium=tumblr
Did something a wee bit different today. Tour of Bladnoch Distillery. The most southerly distillery in Scotland, a fascinating history, and I couldn't touch any of it because I was driving. More than happy to recommend this one to any clients 😊 #visitsouthwestscotland #onlyinscotland #dumfriesandgalloway #whisky #distillery #gsabiosphere #bladnoch https://www.instagram.com/p/CPbZxuSHgRH/?utm_medium=tumblr
Bombus pascuorum or Common Carder Bee on Bulge Weed in the garden. I know I'm a bit late from world bee day but 1, the weather's been pretty rotten and 2, they've just appeared in the garden in the last few days. Waiting to see if the Tree Bumbles make an appearance again 😁 #visitsouthwestscotland #southwestcoastal300 #eastayrshire #doonvalley #ayrshire #bee #bees #polinators #gsabiosphere https://www.instagram.com/p/CPV1VCenrJ-/?utm_medium=tumblr
Stinchar Bridge yesterday evening with Rudie the Hellhound... Driech doesn't even come close to explaining how damp it was. Took the grand total of one photo... Which is highly unusual to say the least. On the plus side, we had the whole place to ourselves. Every cloud and all that 😁 #visitsouthwestscotland #onlyinscotland #southwestcoastal300 #gsabiosphere #gsabiospherecommunity #southayrshire #river #waterfalls https://www.instagram.com/p/CPIYwKxn94W/?utm_medium=tumblr
