I took a trip to the coast today to collect three bags of untreated Hebridean sheep fleece from the Wildlife Trust's visitor centre. 

It was a great opportunity to look around a place that, although local, I had never visited before. As I was walking one of the trails, a buzzard swept out of the tree directly in front of me and soared off across the field. I have never been so close to a wild bird of prey before. It was such a magical moment and I feel so honoured to have witnessed it.
