With a refreshing breeze blowing today, our walk was a pleasure.  It was our first "proper" walk together since Stevan had his thumb operation, and while the pumping blood caused him quite a bit of discomfort he managed well, and got some cracking photographs.  The hills are looking absolutely stunning at the moment.  The heather is in full bloom, and while the predominant heather colours are pinks and purples, there was a rare patch of white heather to be found today:

Lexie's Loch was a great backdrop to the heather coloured hills:

and Peggy and Lexie enjoyed a good roll, run and swim:

But the overriding star in the hills today was definitely the heather.
