Thirty Days Wild, thirty posts throughout June (and July, and August, I’m so,so tardy) something that is grounded in our wild world. This year posts are from our travels around the north coast of Scotland on the North Coast 500 route and a visit to Orkney. Stand by, for lots of sky, sea, wildlife, history, Spud the dog and random musings.
A sheep, being rather photogenically framed in the window of a derelict croft
No, hang on, not one, but two sheep
I had a lot of fun trying to capture a photo of them both looking out together. They reminded me of a barometer my gran had in her home back in the 60’s it was a ‘souvenir of Switzerland’, holiday knick-knack kind of thing. A lady came out of a little door if the sun was going to shine and man came out of a different door if it was going to rain.
But they were having none of it, they were wise enough not to try and second guess the Scottish weather, they wandered off, following, well, like sheep.
I do need to put the location of croft into perspective though. It’s at Drumbeg, what a stunning place. Look you can see it on street view
