You are very welcome!

Brown bell shaped mushrooms growing out of tree bark.

Here's a view of some more of them...

Sometimes a little jiggle of a jelly ear fungus is needed to lift the spirits..

A wonderful cluster of Auricularia auricula-judae

If we care about animals, our choices should reflect it. Can you really call yourself an animal lover if you aren't vegan? 👀

Can you resist the temptation to press the buttons?

Bulgaria inquinans - black bulgar or poor man's liquorice (not edible tho)

Brown & orange bracket fungus on a tree trunk.

Could this be conifer maze gill (Gloeophyllum sepiarium)?

Found in Laide Wood, Wester Ross.

Feathery white clouds in a blue sky above the setting sun. Strip of beach with waves at the very bottom of the picture.

Catching the sunset on Big Sand beach. A raven flew silently over my head. Special place 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

I've fallen deeply in love with the 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 sky. Ever changing. All colours. Awe inspiring. Magnificent. Even when I'm soaked through.

Can my new job be a professional Sky Watcher? Is that a thing?

Reflections of pine trees in a small lake with a single white swan in the distance.

A single whooper swan on Loch na Cathrach Dhuibe in Laide Wood #WesterRoss today. It made the most lovely soft little "whoop" sounds. Maybe calling for a friend?

Rainy days are good days, especially for frogs. Today I learnt that my waterproofs are not waterproof. Soggy but grateful to be here 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿
More stunning views around #WesterRoss

Invigorating & icy walk to the tumbling waterfalls at Flowerdale today. It feels so good to be outside, moving & appreciating nature. I'm deeply grateful for this time to rest & recover - finding myself again..

Sign the petition to end peat sales! No more delays: Let's get peat out of gardens once and for all. The time for uncertainty has ended.

Sign the petition asking the Government to finally end peat compost sales with legislation in 2026 - no more delays.

Snow covered mountains in the background under a moody sky and a rough grey sea in the foreground.

All weathers in one day. Sunshine, hail, snow & a very icy & invigorating wind! The changing textures on the sea loch are mesmerising.
View over the Gair Loch to the Torridon mountains.

Storm on the horizon coming in over the sea and a wide sandy beach. A gully of pebbles stretches across the sand from the foreground

Oh my.
Another day of 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 heart-filling, soul-restoring mountains, sea, wind & ever changing light.
Hail storm coming in low from the outer Hebrides over Big Sand. We got caught in it & arrived home drenched but exceedingly happy.

Okay, will do, especially as it involves moss & lichens! There are some gorgeous lungwort lichens up here in Wester Ross, obviously very happy with the conditions!

#Windswept is a must-read & not just for #BookWeekScotland!
I 'm fortunate to be in the area for a much needed break & I hear @annieworsley.bsky.social beautiful words as we explore.
If you love nature, weather, geology, history & anything 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 or to do with the Highlands, this is a book for you! ❤️

A view across wet sand with mountains in the far distance

Another day of peace & relaxation. Another walk on Big Sand beach looking towards the Torridon mountains. I adore this view, the light & clouds are ever changing..

A stream winding through rough grass to a Loch with mountains in the distance

Another from our walk yesterday: view over Loch Coulin to Liathach & Beinn Eighe. We were fortunate to spot a golden eagle! As well as ravens, buzzards & 4 Whooper swans.
This wild & rugged landscape offers deep peace & the opportunity for restoration

The weather is amazing here whenever we visit! Not missing the heavy rain and flooding in west Wales at all!

Reflection of distant mountains & blue sky with bare trees along the shoreline.

Taken on our fabulous celebration walk today - view across Loch Clair to Beinn Eighe in #WesterRoss
Crisp & cold with deep shadows but utterly glorious.
The white tops are a cap of Cambrian basal quartzite, not snow!

Thank you Sophie, it is gorgeous here!

I'm just round the corner from you and the sunshine & showers are bringing the most amazing skies & views! This is truly an exceptional place, so beautifully described in #windswept

There's something very special about seascape with mountains! Stunning late afternoon view across Big Sand beach to the Torridon mountains. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Close up view of yellow/green lichen showing it's sucker-like apothecia

How scrumptious are these? 😍

Delicious textures, shapes and colours of sunburst lichen on the shoreline near Big Sand, Gairloch.

Back in one of my happy places. This landscape invites a deep sigh & softening thro the body.
