I am absolutely in love with this composition. It was pretty much challenging one, but very fun to work on!
Happy Sunday, #fediverse

Majesty.

The heron retreats from the water after, I think, catching and swallowing its prey.

So it looks as if people are introducing themselves. I am an outdoor writer active since 2014, writing mainly for The Great Outdoors magazine and Sidetracked. I'm also the editor of Sidetracked, which is where much of my creative energy goes these days. I've also had a few books published on long-distance walking. When not at my desk, you'll find me on the hill (or, more often than not, running along muddy Lincolnshire trails). Moving to Scotland in 2023!

Beauty in flight.
This was our parting moment.
Good luck friend!

Hello folks, anyone on here from the Highlands and Islands? Still trying to find my feet with the jump from Twitter 😅

I was feeling almost disappointed with my walk; the sun was vanishing fast and I felt I wasn’t going to find any magic. But suddenly I came to the stream out of Sagdammen that was now filled with golden sun. But there was something even more magical! Can you spot it?!!

The writers at Merriam-Webster really do put out pure gold sometimes:
“We define irregardless, even though this act hurts the feelings of many. Why would a dictionary do such a thing? Do we enjoy causing pain? Have we abdicated our role as arbiter of all that is good and pure in the English language? These are all excellent questions (well, these are all questions)…”

If people have heard of #Islay at all, it's usually because of the whisky, but I would make a strong case for our beaches... This is Machir Bay, on the northwest coast of the island.

Not entirely sure this is how dog-sitting is supposed to work..

These all belong to my sister and brother-in-law (as does the house). How they manage to do anything with 4 dogs, 2 chickens and ??? fish, I have no idea.
