Today I had a day off from driving and to be honest when I've got such fabulous scenery on my doorstep, who needs to drive? I walked from Achiltibuie to Polbain and then around Fox Point and back to the car, about 7.5 miles in total.
Birding highlight was two stunning Black-throated divers on the sea, and also large numbers of twite and white wagtails.
However this plant nearly stole the show, it's pale butterwort Pinguicula lusitanica, a plant that I've apparently only seen once before, on Handa Island in 1985, though I don't remember it.
