"Sometimes the only available transportation is a leap of faith"

We stood for ages watching this little puffin on the cliffs by Duncansby stacks. Camera ready for this moment 📷 🥰

We are incredibly lucky to be able to see them along our coastline. Have you been out to spot them yet?

Meet today's suprise rescue! This little starling was still missing most of its feathers a sure sign it had left the nest too early and was found on the floor of our garage. Luckily the nest was easy to find given the noise of its nest mates so with the help of some ladders we were able to put it back 🥰

If you do find a baby bird check out and for advice as if it has most of its feathers it may be OK left alone!

Our long summer days meant staying up late to catch last night's Aurora but it was definitly worth it as the sky lit up in bold shades of pink and purple! Our guests were delighted to catch the show from their balcony. 😀
