Saturday mooch

Yesterday we headed down to Castle Semple at Lochwinnoch, and did a walk through the surrounding countryside, of just under 4 miles.  There was a really nice little pond, that should have had a kelpie living in it (maybe she was just hiding).
Once on top of the hill, there was a great view taking in three lochs.

Probably the highlight was coming across a couple of young deer.  I managed to get the camera out and just get a photo of them.

Before hitting the cycle track that lead back to the car park, there was the ruins of a little 16th century church.  There's a few graves inside the church, and it's in a really nice setting.

A nice day for going out for a wander.

There really should be a selkie in this photo


If you look carefully you can make out a small deer. 
(Hint - look for the white tuft of the tail)
