SWALLOWS

The swallows have arrived and are already checking out the woodshed. It always amazes me they fly past wonderful nesting sights on their journey north but still keep on going to Lyndale on Skye.

GEESE

Last night when I took the dogs out looking up at a starry sky I heard a skein of geese fly over. I couldn't see them but could certainly hear them.

FEBRUARY ON SKYE

 We are having amazing weather on Skye clear, frosty nights to enjoy the sunset and the stars.
                                           

Sunny days for long walks to Lyndale Point.

WHOOPER SWANS

4 honking Whooper Swans have just flown over Lyndale heading towards the lochs near Claigan. They fly from Greenland and some over winter here on Skye but many carry on south to East Anglia.

SWALLOWS

In the woodshed 

These little chaps are now swooping around catching midges. Their parents have been working like crazy feeding them now they are teaching them arial acrobatics. Two swallows arrived and now have 10 babies from 2 broods.

BLACK RABBIT

We have a black rabbit seen often in front of the cottages and on the driveway.
