Threave castle and Red Kite trail

 
Posted by Picasa

Walked out to Threave from Castle Douglas this morning. I hoped to get some photos of the ospreys which have nested near the castle (for second year)but didn't see them. I did see this new information board and other signs of improvements around the estate.
The rest of the photos can be seen here
