Plenty of highlights in January's Water of Leith wildlife video! The top spot for me was being able to film an elusive water rail several times. Here’s all the action wrapped up in 2 mins - Enjoy #kingfisher #otter #waterrail #urbanwildlife #badger #waterofleith #edinburgh

It's not often we can chance to get together as a staff team . Naturally when we do, we like to be within a stones throw of the river. Thanks to @CurlEdinburgh for teaching us the skills of the stones , a fabulous lunch at @dineedinburgh and then pints at @RoseburnBar

Snow flurries in the Pentlands make for a chilly river study, but @stkentigernsac senior stage geographers huddle together like penguins to stay warm.

The spring clean continues with time dedicated to the Murrayburn tributary up at Riccarton. Lots of plastic waste removed that built up over many years, more to do in future. @Edinburgh_CC

Another huge haul of rubbish cleared by our volunteers this morning, as part of our spring clean whilst at Longstone. We also started the task of reclaiming the path widths on the local paths. @Edinburgh_CC

A different view from the norm for our volunteers today up at Poets Glen. Although not on the walkway, its an extension that provides a car free route into the Pentlands. Thus a good rake off of leaves done to improve the route.
