Autumn in Glen Cannich

A lovely Autumn day, so we took a drive out to one of our favourite spots - Glen Cannich. Had our lunch parked at the Mullardoch dam, which generates electricity as its water descends through a tunnel to Loch Beinn a' Mheadhain in Glen Affric.

Whooper Swans Return

Today we got our first clear sighting of the Whooper Swans returning to Tarbat Ness. What a wonderful sight as eight swans landed in the field behind us. They rested for a few minutes, and then took off again.

We'd spotted a flock of around 30 swans earlier today, so it was great to see them land back on Tarbat Ness.
