It's a Hebridean ewe, there's at least on other in a mixed flock. They were the sheep of choice in the Scottish Highlands before the Clearances and almost became ex

It's the most important time of year in these upland dales. Prizes are still given at agricultural shows for the best hay.

Slow progress on this wall. This part has been worked on before, not that long ago. Buried in the foundation there's a length of braided wire from an electric fence. There's also a snack wrapper dated 2011 but a mouse could have dragged that in.
Because of the steep slope, this is going to take days

I went to inspect another three gaps in a dry stone wall for another neighbour. This one is on Widdybank Fell, near an outcrop of the Whin Sill.

I suppose that veins running through fossils like this must have been a clue to working out the age of rocks. Or is it other way round, estimating age of the mineral? Anyway, it's built into a wall now.

We've not had Belties around the house this year so it's lovely to see them. There is much waving at tiny calves through the kitchen window.
Not sure if they belong to Craig or Rueben, who still has the tenancy of the fields around the hou…

It's just rained and they've been out all day so they're itching to get back in the house.
Off and on for 3 years now I've looked for source of our water supply. National Library of Scotland have a fantastic map resource of old maps, not just Scotland.

Cats were bored in the house so they've been put out into the catio. Actually, they were asking to go out, even though it's drizzling out.
