September weather

The weather in September has been extremely varied with no two days exactly the same. Even during the day the weather can change enormously, one minute dull and overcast, followed by a sudden shower and later on the sun streams through and we have to close the window blinds or sit outside and enjoy....life can be very tough. The variety of weathers has produced some beautiful brilliant rainbows over Loch Ness.
There are still some hardy sailors enjoying life on the water in boating craft of all different shapes and sizes and good luck to them.

Roe deer family

This week we have had a family of roe deer come to visit, a male with antlers and a female with their fawn which must have been between two to three months old and stuck very close to mum.The roe deer are one of Britain's native species and are most widespread especially in Scotland.The family have been happily munching on the grass on the front bank and, as they are one of the most timid species of deer, there was alot of silent creeping about to be able to get these shots. While filming the phone rang and they all took off at great speed.
