πŸŒ™βœ¨οΈ Thick fog settled over Lismore last night. When we headed out with Arthur and his dogs Fly and Misty for our shepherding tour this morning, the whole of Port a Charran seemed very eerie and mysterious, right on cue for All Hallows Eve/Hallowe'en/Samhain. We had some lovely guests from the Cotswolds join us today, including two wee Shepherds in the making! We also visited 's beautiful workshop with lots of elm burr seascapes for the kids to explore 🌊

Beautiful autumn day with guests from Aberdeen today. We spotted Kestrels, Hen Harriers, Buzzards, and many Oystercatchers. Word on the island is that we were enjoying the 'calm before the storm' today, as we are waiting for storm Ashley to hit the Inner Hebrides tomorrow.
