Title: Autumn day
Post by: Weaver on October 17, 2020, 08:25:16 AM
My neighbour went up to the top of the mountain above and to the west of my house, Beinn nan Càrn, and took this shot which she has allowed me to use. Looking west to the Cuilfhionn range on a beautiful autumn day this week, on Wednesday I think:

It has been absolutely beautiful all week here.

Very nice Indeed.   I can almost hear it too... utter silence, bar a few sounds of nature. :)

Far from it in fact. Early in the morning and in the late evening; the stags are ri langan / v. langanaich ‘bellowing’ / ‘roaring’. This is when the deer come down to the moors below the house to the east. Very occasionally, before we got Gilbert and George, we saw a deer in the field at the back of the house. My dear old lurcher Caileag, who was then far from old, saw it and her eyes popped out; she engaged quantum turbo hyperdrive, dialled up warp 9.985 and launched herself like a missile; she who could overtake the landrover up hill at 40 mph was straining every sinew trying to accelerate sufficiently quickly to cross the field and reach the creature in time - to do who honestly knows what when she got there.
