Swans with Cygnets


I've been watching for the cygnets to arrive. A few days late and not the best of light - but the swans are charming with their cygnets.

Family love for sure.

These were taken at both of the Murdieston Dams in Greenock.

Fure Nord - Tanker Berthing


The 'Fure Nord'  arriving at Rothesay Dock near Glasgow.

She was safely berthed with the aid of the tugs.

Nice bright sunshine in between showers but still unseasonably cold.
