Scotland part six

 The final part of our Scottish Holiday and part two of our River Garry walk. To our left was was the river and on our right were fields where dozens of Swallows, House and Sand Martins were hawking for insects. I stood for ages trying to get some images much to my wife’s dismay (she doesn’t really complain that much). They were so quick flying across the fields and trying to pick out one bird against the grass and trees was difficult however I did manage to capture a few images.

Scotland part five

 My penultimate Scottish Blog. We had a short walk by the River Garry on our last full day in Scotland, it was partially sunny with a breeze which made for a pleasant walk and I’m pleased to say there was plenty to photograph. I have split the Blog into two because as always, I have far too many images.

Plant Bug of the Miridae family possibly Lygus pratensis. There were a few of these bugs around one particular patch of clover but not on other patches.

This Harvestman was busy sitting in the garden when we got back to the cottage.

Autumn Colours

I don’t normally do landscapes (you can probably tell why) but I liked the autumnal colours from our trip to Scotland.
