Fantastic detail.
Just like a photograph.
Reminds me of Rotten Calder River at Calderglen Country Park in #EastKilbride
If Roe had been born in 1950 instead, he would have been treated by #NHS. Back in 19thC life was more brutal in #UK than today.
In 21stC a rich person may have bought his work.

What aboot the folks that are descendants of French #Normans who conquered #England in October 14th 1066?
960 years ago.
Today folks with Norman names dominate #Cambridge & #Oxford Universities like #Montgomery, for example.
#EastKilbride most famous #pub is the Montgomery Arms .

#EastKilbride, #Blantyre & #Hamilton all join each other by ~2 miles of roads. In reality they're like an unofficial #city.
EKBH 'city' would be bigger than #Dundee & have more green space too.
Isn't it strange #Glasgow is the only city in the West of #Scotland?

Before #COVID 19 #Sainsbury's in #EastKilbride had a grand cafe with great views to Tinto hill ~25 miles away. After COVID 19 the cafe closed. Last year EK lost both cafes in 2 Morrisons supermarkets which were popular, particularly with older folks
I miss all 3 cafes but that's the way it is.

One giant leap for dog.
One great leap for doggo kind.
It reminds me of my first #swim at Dollan baths in #EastKilbride when they opened in 1968.

The common #kingfisher isn't common in #EastKilbride
I once asked if they would take a Bank of England banknote in a Supermarket in #Scotland & was delighted they did.

Grim
In 1970 we would cycle to #Eaglesham just to west of #EastKilbride in glorious countryside. Up by Fenwick moor we would walk up to top of Ballageich hill, & see great views of #Glasgow to north.Today Whitelee Windfarm dominates to south of this hill. This photo could be 1870 rather than 1970.

🎶Life in #botanicalgardens oh, yes, nice place to be🎶

At Calderglen Country Park in #EastKilbride there is a botanical garden of flower beds. It attracts butterflies in summer. In October it's transformed into a #Pumpkin display for #Halloween.
Well worth a visit.

Thanks.
They look like white Grey Herons.
Grey Herons are quite common in #EastKilbride

When #EastKilbride had its own EK District Council & Development Corporation from 1947-1995, it was much better off then, than from 1996 to present, under control of South Lanarkshire Council.
Who knows what local government in #Scotland will look like after #SNP reforms?
More centralisation?

~10,000 years ago #Britain became an Island after the great flood when ice melted created North sea.
#EastKilbride land was once part of #Welsh #Strathclyde Kingdom where #Damnonii tribe lived, before it was absorbed into #Scotland & #England

#EastKilbride needs the restoration of East Kilbride District Council, as an independent Burgh from South Lanarkshire Council, & the Swinney centralised #SNP Gov in #Edinburgh !

And yet after it rains & I walk in #EastKilbride I see so many of their #mollusc cousins, terrestrial snails, dead & crushed by cruel human feet, because humans don't like or respect them.
