| The only grouse I saw in the highlands |
Popped over to Scotland for a wee September break with Evelyn. It wasn’t a birding trip, but I encountered a few birdies anyway. Nothing ‘new,’ but it’s always nice to see Eurasian commons. Was raining heavily in the highlands, so I wasn’t able to get much birding done up in the hills.
My kingdom for a cold pint of Magner’s. Can't get it here, damned dirty Quebec apple barons.
