Winter weekend wanderings…

We had a lovely weekend weather-wise – sunny but cold and crisp with a dusting of frost here and there.

As we are still in lockdown, it remains very limited as to where we can go, so on Saturday we took a walk along the river Kelvin to Kelvingrove Park, where we took this nice photo at the pond, with the university in the background.

We then headed into the university campus as we find the “cloisters” are always nice for a photograph, particularly when they are decorated with fairy lights…

Heading back home via the botanic gardens, and armed with some nuts for the squirrels, we had no success in feeding them. It was what we call “hoaching” and they had obviously already been well fed! Oh well, another time.

Waking up to yet another bright, crisp and sunny day on Sunday, we decided to revisit Pollok Country Park. We only visited this gorgeous park for the first time last year during the first lockdown, back in Spring. Seeing it in winter was quite different. Below is a selection of photos that we took…
