Venison delivery, fuel pick up, shopping for stores to-day and a grey day forecast? Well that was wrong, what a stunning day. Lots of wildlife about, Curlews, early this morning and lots of seals in the bay, rafts of seabirds feeding, porpoises everywhere, deer on Rassay and on the tops of Rona enjoying the sunshine. Two Sea Eagles perched on the shore at the mouth of the harbour. Topping it off with a long swim tonight in the sunset. Great to be out in nature, tomorrow looks cloudy for our day in the forest. But fingers crossed, good to see so much wildlife but no surprise on such a day. Nature is doing very well in this part of the world.

To get days like this at this time of the year is such a bonus. The forecast was for a grey day but it was the complete opposite.

Venison sales are taking off and Christmas is just around the corner, so we will start sorting out our deer for culling. The numbers need to be kept in check and the end result is one of the best sources of healthy protein you can find. Of course we are very particular about our venison and our sales are testament to our handling of the deer and subsequent meat we offer for sale. I wish other were so.

We will soon be taking orders for our mixed Christmas box.
