Bluebell wood

Spring in Scotland = flowers everywhere.

On a short walk to the Baird Monument we were surrounded by bluebells.  Magical.

 

 

 

 

 

 

We finally reached the Monument, at the top of a very small hill.  Commemorating General David Baird, who appears to have been a remarkable character, both in his military and in his personal life.   According to the wording on the Monument:

“He felt no jealousies.  He harboured no resentment. He knew no guile.”

Then back down the hill and home.
