Now that the bitter, blustery weather is upon us the wildlife begins to make regular visits to many of the residences and quiet cottages in the highlands. Last week we had a special visitor. Stood right outside my office window … in full glory!
And just when I had gotten over that thrill … Sunday, 5 family members of the Christmas Dinner Society appeared outside my office. The scritched and scratched for more than an hour and they were beautiful. Sophie, the dawg, so wanted to go out and play … at least I think that’s what she had in mind.
So, despite the chill and the gray skies there are moments that make you pause and take in the wonders that are quite unique to our rural playground.
