Setting off across the dam, I peeped over the wall to see if there was a dipper there - and just below were two whooper swans.
I don't usually see them this close on Loch Glascarnoch, and they were as surprised as I was - so I clicked off a hasty shot and walked rapidly on.
Two ravens were pottering about at the far side of the dam, so breeding might well be soon underway; and a female stonechat was on the fence down towards the water.
I had a brief walk at Loch Droma, where twelve further whoopers were feeding in the shallows. The wind nearly knocked me over!
