What a beautiful day for a hike. We started in the forest, walked true the dune area to the beach. Great therapy, and lots of beautiful birds spotted. I hope it stays this weather for a couple of days!

Ok so hear me out… on the other side of the bridge you see a baby cow with what looks like 2 big cow guards. I don’t know how protective they are so I wasn’t gonna walk through a herd and possibly get trampled

There’s cows and cows :cow: :cow:. Then there’s bulls as well :red_square:. IMO you’re quite right to practise some caution Jennifer. The Scottish Highlanders we have here grazing our nature reserves, are known for their very docile nature and behaviour. Still we are reminded to keep our distance, although not many people do.

Not crossing herds is always a wish decision when there are young animals around.
Al tough those animals are harmless and non aggressive, otherwise it is not allowed to let them walk around loose.
Most people don’t now how to approach them without scaring them. Cows have a very bad eye sight so If you have to pass them always move slow and do not make any unexpected movements.

so running up the stairs wasn’t a good idea in this situation :wink:

Yesterday I made a long walk on my own of 20 km/12,4 miles. The weather was great so I could walk without my coat.


I walked around in the protected nature area near my house. I know the way and so I just wandered a bit. It was good! :pray:

Scotland, that’s one of the counties on my wishlist for a holiday. But I hate mosquitoes :see_no_evil:
Is it douable? Mosquitoes like my blood, so that discourage me to go…

In the summer months they are unbearable. If you came in the colder months then you would be absolutely fine :grin:

I’m hoping to be able to do the West Highland Way at some point. Probably not this year but hopefully will be fit enough next year!

I was reading up and it looks like June and September are good times to avoid the worst of the midges and make the most of the light.
