I saw a Moor Hen on the farm today! She was scurrying to the burn and looking so cute and black and chicken like. I also saw a Bull Finch in the walled garden perched up in a tree singing away. I love birds!
So do the cats...
All fourteen of them.
On Sunday Erlend and I are heading down to Pluscarden Abbey for another visit. We are staying until Thursday and I'm sooooo happy! On Wednesday Erlend has an organic farming meeting in Dunkeld but I'm going to remain behind at the monastery and work on researching Orkney folklore for my book.
Five days without boggling escaped cattle, wild screaming sheep or telephones ringing off the hook.
Bliss. Pure bliss.

I was able to read this, have a nice thingy, or whatever it is that you're doin'.
Tws from A Very Short Attention Spa
That sounds like a real money-spinner Tws.
Flying Cat from can't quite remember what...
Sounds very peaceful. I hope you have a great time!
Love to hear your description of birds and other beasties.

So...I traded my quiet cabin in the Alaskan woods for the howling winds of Orkney and life on a farm.
