I was heading to the shops the other day and was glad to have my phone with me and was able to capture these fantastic flowers. A lot of people think of Cumbernauld as this dull, grey, concrete town, but these photos go to show that there is colour everywhere.
Following on from my previous post featuring the birdlife of Broadwood Loch, here are some photos of the plant life.
