This magnificent ancient oak at #HintonAmpner is thought to be around 600 years old. In the third and final stage of its life, its hollowing trunk and decaying wood providing an exceptionally valuable habitat for wildlife, fungi and insects. #ThickTrunkTuesday #trees #oak @nationaltrust.org.uk

Ten years ago today, by Lochinver, I witnessed the best sunset I've ever seen.
Red and gold sunset.

This made me smile, attached to an ordinary cast iron drainpipe on a house in Durham. #TinyJoys
A cast iron drain pipe going down the side of a white-painted house.  A crest of red feathers and a bright orange beak made from something solid have been attached around it.  It looks remarkably like "Feathers McGraw", the evil criminal penguin from The Wrong Trousers.

This is a disgrace. Brave RNLI volunteers being called scum for risking their lives to save others at sea is just plain wrong. So I've signed an open letter of thanks for the RNLI letting them know these thugs do not speak for the rest of us. Add your name? act.38degrees.org.uk/act/rnli-tha...

The Clach An Trushal, Lewis. The tallest standing stone in Scotland (2nd photo for scale). Approx 5.8 m in height with 2 m underground. And it’s found up an easily missed track beside someone’s home in Ballantrushal #StandingStoneSunday #LewisianGneiss

I mentioned a couple of days ago that there was a pod of Dolphins in the loch. Yesterday, they came back, and I managed to get some footage. The largest of them was huge. Best guess; 4 metres long.
