If we care about animals, our choices should reflect it. Can you really call yourself an animal lover if you aren't vegan? 👀

Another for #FungiFriday

Can you resist the temptation to press the buttons?

Bulgaria inquinans - black bulgar or poor man's liquorice (not edible tho)

Could this be conifer maze gill (Gloeophyllum sepiarium)?

Found in Laide Wood, Wester Ross.

I've fallen deeply in love with the 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 sky. Ever changing. All colours. Awe inspiring. Magnificent. Even when I'm soaked through.

Can my new job be a professional Sky Watcher? Is that a thing?

A single whooper swan on Loch na Cathrach Dhuibe in Laide Wood #WesterRoss today. It made the most lovely soft little "whoop" sounds. Maybe calling for a friend?

Invigorating & icy walk to the tumbling waterfalls at Flowerdale today. It feels so good to be outside, moving & appreciating nature. I'm deeply grateful for this time to rest & recover - finding myself again..

Sign the petition asking the Government to finally end peat compost sales with legislation in 2026 - no more delays. It’s been a long and tiring road to get peat compost banned and we need your signatures and shares now more than ever to get it done. actnow.peatfreepartnership.org.uk/end-peat-sal...

All weathers in one day. Sunshine, hail, snow & a very icy & invigorating wind! The changing textures on the sea loch are mesmerising.
View over the Gair Loch to the Torridon mountains.

Oh my.
Another day of 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 heart-filling, soul-restoring mountains, sea, wind & ever changing light.
Hail storm coming in low from the outer Hebrides over Big Sand. We got caught in it & arrived home drenched but exceedingly happy.

#Windswept is a must-read & not just for #BookWeekScotland!
I 'm fortunate to be in the area for a much needed break & I hear @annieworsley.bsky.social beautiful words as we explore.
If you love nature, weather, geology, history & anything 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 or to do with the Highlands, this is a book for you! ❤️

It's #BookWeekScotland a celebration of books & reading. #Windswept still roams the world, promoted mostly by word of mouth. This year's theme is friendship. My wee book is filled with my Highland friends - wildlife & wilderness!
So... happy Book Week and happy reading 😊

Another from our walk yesterday: view over Loch Coulin to Liathach & Beinn Eighe. We were fortunate to spot a golden eagle! As well as ravens, buzzards & 4 Whooper swans.
This wild & rugged landscape offers deep peace & the opportunity for restoration

Taken on our fabulous celebration walk today - view across Loch Clair to Beinn Eighe in #WesterRoss
Crisp & cold with deep shadows but utterly glorious.

How scrumptious are these? 😍

Delicious textures, shapes and colours of sunburst lichen on the shoreline near Big Sand, Gairloch.

A gorgeous collection of pink ballerina waxcaps on my trail run today (Porpolomopsis calyptriformis). A very good reason to stop for a breather!

Every walk in the woods yields an awesome find - tiny mushrooms on a mushroom! A type of mycoparasite but unsure which. Host shroom was too gone over to id. But a fascinating find!
#fungifriends #FungiFriday #fungi #mycology #naturephotography
Tiny white fungal fruiting bodies, mushrooms, growing on a much larger dark brown mushroom cap. Two brown mushroom caps with tiny white fungal fruiting bodies growing out the centre. On the woodland floor.
