The salt on the windows creates weird patterns in the sunlight. #uist 😻🐈‍⬛

The bright sun in the blue sky somehow has wings.

A huge black cat, the Panther, sits on the stool and gazes out of the window.

As the light fades, the moon rises #uist

Across the loch, the moon shines amid the clouds.

Journey home under shining skies #uist

The sun shining through wispy cloud and turning the ocean silver.

Crossing the big causeway, the sun and sea are even brighter.

Ok, I can drag myself away. #uist

When you’ve delivered #kittens to the ferry and you’re sitting in the sunshine by the harbour reluctant to drive home. #uist

A black and white kitten looks out of a carrier.

A black kitten scowls in the bottom of a carrier.

The Pabbay Lass heads out towards Harris, kittens on board.

Is it edible? #fungi #uist

White fungus growing in the grass. Don’t worry, I’m not going to eat it, just curious.

Golden yellow tiny fungi in the grass. Definitely not edible but v pretty.

#uist #WashingLine on a beautiful day.

A towel, pjs, and underwear on a washing line among green fields. A frizzle hen looks hopeful as she runs toward the photographer.

A bright morning and I’m forgiven for the flea medicine. #uist 😻🐈

White clouds and a dazzling sun in the blue sky.

A pale ginger cat cleans all the tray from an espresso saucer.

The cat has a flea allergy so it’s vital I keep him flea free.

Thanks. Alas, no joy so I let the battery drain completely and it then rebooted when I recharged it. I’ve transferred the eSIM to my old phone since I can’t trust the new one. Can’t risk being unable to use a mobile on #uist.

Weather and chickens in matching colours. #uist

A hazy silver sky with the sun shining through the mist.

Agree Brahma cockerel and hen stride across the grass.

Sunshine and cloud and a sleeping panther #uist

A band of grey cloud splits the sky diagonally, all through a window coated in salt.

A huge black cat sleeps curled up on the stool before the triptych of windows.

Early morning clouds #uist

The rising sun has stained the clouds with pink.

The loch reflects the pink, blue, and grey of the sky.

Evening light #uist

The primrose glow of the last of the sun in an evening blue sky. A massive rain cloud looms to the left.

40-50mph winds but that’s a typical Saturday #uist

The sun dazzles in a pale blue sky of scattered wispy clouds and the loch gleams silver.

How the view really looks through my salt-smeared window.

A miserable wet, blustery day. I have treated myself to locally caught lobster tails and langoustines for a luxurious weekend. #uist #ShopLocal 😋🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Mum cat and 2 #kittens caught in South #Uist through the persistence of one of the key members of @uistcatrescue.bsky.social - she was resetting traps in the early hours to get the wee ones.

A beautiful black cat with big green eyes and a white spot on her chest sits in a crate.

A wee kitten with bright eyes and a white bib crouches in a fluffy lair.

A second black kitten, nearly identical to the other but with slightly more white, sits in her litter box.

Storms incoming! Baked fruit and #porridge for breakfast #uist 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

A patch of light between threatening clouds over the loch.

A bowl of porridge with a thick covering of brightly coloured baked fruit.

High tide #uist

A soft grey sky, silver sea channel, and a hill topped by cloud.

Silver water creeping over silver sand beyond the rock wall of the causeway.
