hints of autumn

Tue, Jul 7, 2009

It's only early July but yesterday brown leaves were being blown from the trees and today I saw the first turning of the bracken, up at about 150m. There are cold north westerly gales and the choppy waters of Broadford Bay form a stormy backdrop to a newly ordered pile of logs outside a house on the shore and yet the Bog Asphodel only just started flowering a couple of weeks ago in Lochaber. Och aye, the nights are fair drawin' in!
