A very Happy Christmas to you all! We hope you enjoy your lunch as much as this wee fella!

Where will you explore this year? The Dwarfie Stane, Isle of Hoy (Orkney), is possibly the most unusual chambered tomb we've visited and was hollowed out from a single piece of sandstone over 5,000 years ago. Inside is a passage leading to two rounded rooms.

Corryvreckan Whirlpool (from the Gaelic Coire Bhreacain meaning "cauldron of the speckled seas" or "cauldron of the plaid") is a narrow strait between the islands of Jura & Scarba, nr Oban. It's the 3rd largest in the world & the resulting maelstrom can be heard over 10km away!

Vatersay beach taken by Robyn Shilland whilst on holiday on Barra...... the beauty of this photo is that you have no idea what time of year it is. It just makes us smile! Oh, how we are looking forward to exploring again!

#Imbolc is a very important date on the #Celtic calendar. Our blog gives a little background and also explains the groundhog..... #groundhogday truehighlands.com/the-story-of-i…

The Battle of the Pass of Brander (Loch Awe) in Scotland forms a small part of what's known as the Wars of Scottish Independence, which was a victory for King Robert Bruce over the MacDougalls of Argyll. The date is not exactly know but the late summer of 1308 is most likely.

The yellow gorse is beginning to bloom, the daffodils are sprouting up and we are keeping a keen eye out for the first lambs of the season. Spring has arrived!

This amazing Fairy Bridge can be found in the woodland at Glen Creran near Oban. In spring, the moss floored woodland surrounding the bridge is covered in bluebells and wild garlic. A truly magical place. (Photos by Al Beattie)

Sunday lunch 'to go' for this white tailed sea eagle!

Now we officially don't have to wear masks in most places anymore, you can see our moo-eautiful faces! But please feel free to continue wearing masks for as long as you feel comfortable. #coosday

If you are a couple (or single) wanting to explore the west coast, Duncans Barn is a luxury barn conversion just 15 minutes from #Ullapool. Overlooking Loch Broom, it has a peaceful location & eagles are often seen across the water. Visit the website here: duncansbarn.co.uk

Just seen this bird which looks like some sort of woodpecker… but not finding it on RSPB RSPB North Scotland list… any help?! Had a beautiful golden crest. #woodpecker
