Hares, stoats, ducks, deer, pheasants (and probably many more creatures as yet unseen) are making for good companions in this isolated but beautifully quiet corner of the Central Highlands of Scotland. A few noises in the coming days will change all that, but it's blissful whilst it lasts.
It's tempting to extend one's stay beyond the original dates planned, but it's early days, so these decisions are best made when the rose tint has cleared a little. But a change in scenery is so important from time to time, to make one remember the good points of the places in which we live.
This morning's early rain shower has now given way to bright sunshine, so my task for the day of covering the stacked wood logs for the winter fires can be postponed, and I hope not just briefly.
