What a wild day! The best sort.

We had a visit from a Plantlife botanist and his partner this afternoon and I had the absolute pleasure of showing them the fields. It was wonderful to walk through the fields with someone so knowledgeable and I felt very proud of how Treshnish has blossomed, literally, in the last 23 years.

I find the hawk weeds very difficult but I now know this one is Marsh hawks beard. It was in a damper patch of the Haunn field.
Highlight was the bank of Wood bitter-vetch I photographed yesterday. Today with our visitors, in brilliant mid afternoon sunshine it was again difficult to photograph. So tonight I went back just before sunset and caught the golden hour which accentuated the colours of the plant nicely.
