https://www.geograph.ie/photo/388334
This picture was taken in early spring and this roe deer buck is regrowing his antlers. At present they are covered with skin (velvet) which will soon come off. He will lead a solitary life until the summer when he will try to gather up some does for breeding. See how well camouflaged he is in the heather. He watched us as we walked past but didn't move.text/html2007-04-04T22:15:12+00:00https://www.geograph.ie/profile/12349John McMillan56.615616 -3.537170NO0548 : Fir tree

This is a fir tree, not a pine tree. It looks like a Christmas tree with brown candles (hanging upside down)text/html2007-04-04T22:12:07+00:00https://www.geograph.ie/profile/12349John McMillan56.615424 -3.538139NO0548 : Scots pine
https://www.geograph.ie/photo/388308
This is a pine tree, not a fir tree. Fir trees never colonised Scotland after the last ice age, so all those fir trees that you see are planted by people.
The Scots pine used to cover most of Scotland but for the last 2000 years people have been cutting them down for wood or to make space for farms, or burning them down.text/html2007-04-04T22:05:56+00:00https://www.geograph.ie/profile/12349John McMillan56.618268 -3.547870NO0548 : Children's Loch

Why this name? Did they once catch children here? Did they use sweeties as bait? Or was this where the children learned to fish?text/html2007-04-04T22:01:41+00:00https://www.geograph.ie/profile/12349John McMillan56.621916 -3.550790NO0448 : The font of the "Sancta Crux Well"
