Wednesday, Thursday, 17th, 18th September

I'm back! Visits from grandchildren, bad weather and a walk along the Great Glen have kept me busy since the beginning of the month. Last Monday coming through the forest into Inverness we saw two majestic Red Kites. These are huge birds!
Yesterday had grey-yellow sky, today a beautiful blue. The tide was high and on the turn, so that I was not able to see any of the waders, I expect that they are back for the winter by now. No peregrines, just a squadron of ducks in a fly-past!
