Captains log the sound of Mull……

Overheard this morning as folk got on Calum’s wildlife trip in plockton. Are you folks from the USA. “For this trip to Europe we’re Canadian”!

Just been stopped on street in Plockton. Euan Macgregor I love you on Out of Doors! Praise indeed.

Craighouse Jura Sea Thrift Pinks in all their glory!

Thought Bracken was taking in the scent. But Looking for crab bits.

A couple of weeks back a wren decided to commandeer an old swallow nest. This morning on my workshop shelf two hatched wren eggs. Chicks now very quiet in moss home. what a great start to the day. Crimson isn’t blood …paint for triumph!

Sometimes restoring a 1949 can car can get you down a bit. more rust than metal! Should have stayed at the BBC.
