Sunday 24.6.2018

Had hoped for a late evening walk up Bennachie on the 21st to mark the solstice but despite blue skies and sunshine the wind was so strong we decided it would be too much like hard work.
Indeed, the wind persisted though on Friday at least it wasn`t going for the jugular so we managed a trot round the woods...cue yet more tree pics...

....and there were lines and rows and shadows too.

This evening, after the tension of the football (tension? what tension? 6-1! even if it was "only" Panama) a walk the perfect antidote. Calm and warm,bird chorus in full swing, butterflies fluttering over the waist high cow parsley, the air thick with scent...and those trees! Plus a little natural sculpture.....

And tonight it is still and warm with a nearly full golden moon hanging against the indigo blue of an endless Scottish summer night. Don`t really want to go to bed........
