Day started calm and overcast, but the sun came out and so did the wind. The cruiseliner Hebridean Princess paid us a brief visit, but I did not envy her passengers, who departed Stornoway in a force 6 this evening.
The birds are now busy feeding their young, who all have voracious appetites... Weather remains cold for the time of year, barely into double figures (celsius scale)
Went out for lunch with a handful of people, two of whom are Facebook contacts, dating back to the era of Island Blogging (now defunct), and two of their friends. Lunch was had at the Woodlands Centre in the Castle Grounds, and a nice hour's chat was enjoyed by all. I was sad to find that the little footpath between the Woodlands and the Castle was destroyed by the winter's storms, see the second pic below. The bridge across the burn is wrecked, and the path completely blocked by fallen trees.
