Spring is almost here in Aberdeenshire (it's early this year) and I have been out on three small walks over the past 10 days or so enjoying the dry weather.
The first walk was to an area 20 miles north of Ellon at a place called Forrest of Deer.

The next place was near Cullen (famous for its fish soup called Cullen Skink) walking up Bin of Cullen where we had great views of the coastal area of the Murray Firth. It was blowing a high wind at the top as you can see from our hair.

Lastly, we had a walk up Benachie along with a 3 yr old who continually ran on ahead putting us to shame on the steep climb.
