Good day from the inner Hebs

Greetings one and all.
I would like to say what an informative site this is (ghost browsing for a while!). Nice bunch of people also.

I'm a bad bird spotter, a novice with orchids, a total begginer with fungi, yearn to see more cataceans, can hardly tell one tree from another, constantly trying to take a decent photograph and have a poor memory.

On the positive side I (and my other half) thoroughly enjoy all wildlife, plantlife and nature in general.

Look out for numerous questions within the birds and fungal fora!

Re: Good day from the inner Hebs

Not sure I've been here long enough myself to welcome you properly, but welcome anyway. It is a tremendous site, isn't it? You'll find everyone very helpful.

Re: Good day from the inner Hebs

Hello SouthernSkye from me in southern Essex.

I have visited Skye many times and have to say you live in one of the most beautiful and stunning parts of the UK. Where do you live on Skye?

Welcome to WAB .... I look forward to hearing more about Skye and seeing some photos in the gallery.

Richard

Re: Good day from the inner Hebs

Many thanks for all the warm greetings. Nice to ‘meet’ you all.

R|chew: My home overlooks Broadford bay. Godwits from my lounge window !
It is a cracking place to live, slightly damp on the odd occasion and with a wee bit of a blow now and then, but undoubtedly beautiful.
I haven’t got as far as the Photo gallery yet but I shall have a go at popping a few bits on there sometime.

Lincs Yellowbelly: Bring your waterproof Binocs when you head to the Hebs. Scandinavia is very nice. I lived in Stockholm for 18 months. Great summers (lots of midges there too!) and cold, crisp dry winters.

Bye for now
SS
