As many of you who have visited Lochend will know, the pheasants around here, bred for shooting, have particularily bad road sense, and on the B8034 you rather pick your way through them to get to the chalets! However ‘Gary the Tank’, (kids named him!) who has strutted around Lochend for a few years now, stopped me in my tracks yesterday because it was so unusual to see a pheasant in, what must be its more natural state, a tree!
