I have often wanted to see Coll and the surrounding area from the air – these are the Treshnish Isles from the air. I had little chance to take snaps but I enjoyed the flight (with Hebridean Air).
Gosford slurry
One of my favourite locations for walking and Heron spotting – Gosford House ponds. The water is like pea soup – thick with blue-green algae. There is scum and mould forming islets in the water.

Gallanach, Isle of Coll
The beaches on Coll are clean, clear and the sand is fine. I had the pleasure of swimming in Struan, Toraston and Clabach. This is Gallanach beach – just out of shot are a large number of seals. They are curious creatures which come to “check you out” while you are swimming. They must chuckle at my clumsy attempts as I am splashing around!
Chimney sweep
A wee visitor who popped down the chimney :-)
Flew off none the worse for the experience, btw.
The wee window cleaner
spoke to the wee roofer
Wait till the wee chimney sweep comes
then you’ll stop laughing
up there on your wee roof
Whereupon the wee roofer
dropped a wee tile
right on the wee head
of the wee window cleaner
who
from sheer fright
kept as quiet
as a church mouse
