I took a very gentle stroll along the beach towards Dunrobin Castle this morning enjoying some unexpected sun and a light northerly which brought in only the occasional equally light shower. There are signs of the changing seasons in the air, with....
....a lone swan flying north, it's passing advertised by the song of the air through its feathers, and....
....two skeins of geese also heading north, the first geese we've seen on the wing above Golspie in some time.
Along the shore there are plenty of oystercatchers but other than....
....cormorants, gulls and the occasional grey heron there's very little to see.
I can't help but worry about the lack of divers and waders - even the redshanks were missing this morning - particularly when the only guillemot we've seen in some weeks was dead on the shore.
