I wanted to know if it was viable to do a day out in Skye from my home in Acharacle. So I went this morning, the road way. It took over four hours to get to the top of Skye, me wary of hitting deer or ice on the road. The scenery was absolutely stunning with sunlit white mountain tops everywhere , except I didn't see them at all on the way up...only coming home, as I spent four hours driving through a black tunnel this morning.

The Storr from Loch Fada. Every loch and puddle on Skye seems to offer something for you to reflect upon. A feast for your eyes.

So after a catastrophic HDD failure all my photos are now back where they should be and I'm able to process and post some new ones (thank goodness for backups).

I'm losing track of which of these I've posted.

Pretty sure I haven't posted this version.

View On Black

Större hackspett Dendrocopos major - vilket betyder, större trädhuggare.

Typiska kännetecken:

23 cm. Våran vanligaste hackspett. Har en iögonfallande vit fläck på var vinge. Hannen har svart hjässa med röd nacke, honan saknar röd nackfläck och ungfåglarna har röd hjässa. Samtliga har röda undre stjärttäckare.

Finnes:

Den mest spridda av våra hackspettar. Förekommer allmänt i hela landet norrut till Lycksele Lappmark och södra Norrbotten. Längre norrut blir den mer sällsynt och saknas helt som häckfågel i fjällbjörkskogen.

Always a pleasure

CUTE AS A BUTTON

After witnessing a magical misty dawn high up above the Old Man of Storr, I took the opportunity to wander around the area as I had the place to myself. The mist kept coming in and out as I did so and I found many wonderful rock formations on the less popular south side of the Old Man. This one resembled a "sphinx" or a "lion" viewed from this angle, so I couldn't resist a shot with the mist enveloping the Old Man in the background.

I made my way back down after this shot and met the first people I saw on this glorious morning just before I got back to my car!

With me out of action for some time yet, I can at least now sit at the computer for long enough to edit some old, previously overlooked images. This one is from last winter; a dawn trek up to the Old Man of Storr in some pretty challenging conditions started the day but the wind dropped to a light breeze as we passed Loch Fada allowing for a different aspect on the Storr and some half decent reflections in the loch.
