Good to be back

It is great to go away and even better coming back as it helps one appreciate things you often take for granted. 
Today it was off to twitch a Bluethroat on this bay on South Uist. I didn't catch up with the bird, but sitting there waiting for it to appear (or not) was no real hardship.
Tricia even had a swim off the beach here - if only to retrieve a ball that Ruadh wouldn't.
