No Change in the Weather


This morning, heavy waves were still breaking against the rocks at the most westerly point on the British mainland, just to the south of Ardnamurchan Point lighthouse.  We're still under the influence of a strong westerly airstream, and there's no sign of it letting up.

Meanwhile, in the shelter of Kilchoan Bay, a grey heron studiously ignores a passing mallard drake and his two ladies.  The seaweed and other flotsam piled up beyond them are the left-overs from recent spring tides driven higher by a following wind.
