Catch of Monday: Birds II: two very cooperating juvenile White-throated Dippers. They almost landed on my feet.

While I'm at the Dipper, one of the parents of the juvenile above, showing how well camouflaged they are.

EDIT: Ouups, no, I was too quick. It is not one of the parents but a different bird. Thanks to Bent for pointing it out. It looks like a Common Sandpiper.

Finally, not a bird but Cladonia, a moss like lichen (thanks to Birna's identification service here in the lodge's main room)

To give an idea of the lie of the land where we are operating, here is a view towards our place in Glen Shiel showing Loch Duich in the middle ground and the Five Sister range as a backdrop. The snow dusting mostly disappeared in the last two days.

14-30Z on my Z6.

NG gatherings are always great and even greater when a French chef participates

Now at last at the NG meeting, got a delicious meal to greet us, thank you.

In the garden the common chaffinch was singing, this is not as great as Brunos, but I will try to improve. ;)

At least I got started

D500 300PF plus 1.4 converter.
