Mull Magic

Finally, a beautiful sunny day on the #Mullmagic Ardnamurchan Adventure. Three White-tailed eagles, two otters, common seals and bird life galore. My personal highlights were the amazing views to the Uists, the Small Isles and Skye plus a beautiful pair of Stonechats.

Mother Nature’s work of art on the #mullmagic Island Odyssey Walk.

Beautiful day in #Tobermory en route to the lighthouse. Lunch with a view and some welcome shade. #mullmagic

Balmy days and blue skies, wildlife watching on #mullmagic #otter walk.

Glorious sunshine meant little snow now left on the mountains of #Mull. Brilliant #mullmagic day out.

We’ve been blessed with fantastic weather and stunning walks on #Mull this week. #mullmagic #scottishislands – at Tobermory, Scotland

Red deer and her fawn enjoying a friends wild meadow back garden. It’s turning into a miniature nature reserve with #orchids and #Butterflies. #Mull – at Tobermory, Scotland

First trip of the year out to #Calgary on #Mull. We had the beach to ourselves, despite the sunshine. Idyllic! #mullmagic

The rather commanding position of the last remaining Ardnacross Standing Stone. Sadly, the five other stones are now recumbent. #standingstones #isleofmull

There was still some (love) life left in this rather lacklustre pair of Six-spot burnet moths, which were soaking up the last rays of the #Mull sunshine, prior to the current deluge!

Who needs Bournemouth anyway when we’ve got beaches like this on the #isleofmull? We didn’t have to share it with a single soul. #beaches #mull

This Large Heath butterfly, tangled in a web on the #isleofmull hopefully lived to see another day. I was inclined to save the #butterfly but what about the poor spider! Doesn’t it deserve the treat that nature has bestowed on it?

A #butterfly that favours the boggy terrain of #Mull might be struggling just now with our lack of rain. However we saw healthy numbers of Small Pearl-bordered Fritillaries today.

Beautiful skies and view tonight across the Sound to Ben Hiant. So much to appreciate, almost from my #Tobermory doorstep.

Finally, some blue skies on #Mull. But Winter’s not over yet, so don’t forget warm clothing for your #mullmagic walk. – at Tobermory, Scotland

Another day of wind and rain but still some beautiful sheltered trails in #arospark near #Tobermory. It’s a #mullmagic favourite. – at Tobermory, Scotland

We saw an opportunity and grabbed it yesterday before the gales commenced. Fabulous day on the #isleofmull with a #mullmagic mountain walk.

Stunning morning light over the Sound of Mull. No #Mullmagic walks today but a very productive meeting with the #visitmullandiona team at Craignure.
