Ooh, someone new at the popular sunflower feeder this morning. It's the usual goldfinches swarming, and some redpolls, but I /think/ this is a siskin. More feathery minds that mine will correct me. Neither of us recall seeing one of these here.
Sorry about the bad pic, through the living room window against the sun.

Preas Loch, aka Loch An Aigeil, starting to put on her summer clothes.

Morning walk, and the lambies are having to learn to find cool places. It's already 20°C and not a cloud in the sky

For anyone land-locked, and anyone else for that matter, here's some sea video for you from #Assynt on this beautiful morning.

Early May and the marsh orchids are just starting to appear.

It's that lovely but short period when the lambies test their new legses out, form little gangs and generally teach us what life is all about.
Wait for the one that tried leaping the rocks, but... just couldn't make it.

Good Morning, World. I may just snoozle on for a while if you don't mind.

One of the resident Great Northerns that appear in Stoer Bay every year. The pair were quite close inshore today.

The effect of the rain at Just The Right Time can be seen as the landscape suddenly greens up. Soon it will be difficult to imagine the landscape in its winter clothing.

Every year, one of Davie's old yows gives him a beautiful little black lambie.
Mumsie's fiercely protective, so it was hard getting a decent snap. Maybe we'll get more in the coming days.

Rats! Didn't notice the focus wasn't on this, the first sea pink we've noticed this year. Still worth posting, though.

Land skeins, on this lovely morning in #Assynt

Here's Preas Loch, widely acknowledged to be the very navel at the Centre of the (known) Universe, absorbing fire from the heavens, this beautiful evening.

An usual bit of sea video for you this evening, but here you are, have this fiery sunset, and hopefully if you can hear them, the birds and animal sounds.
