It is a lovely calm evening here on after all the stormy weather we have had recently. Have a lovely weekend.

Hope you are having better weather on the mainland. Sitting here with 70 mph winds and torrential rain today. Reflecting on the wet spring and summer and the effect on the bees and insects.

It seems bee numbers have been lower throughout the UK this year and I suspect the numbers of Great Yellow Bumblebees here have also been impacted by the weather this year.

We are thinking of leaving part of our lawn wild next year to encourage wildflowers to provide extra habitat for bees, although only a small area, if we all do something to help bees by providing habitat it will make a difference.

In celebration of these wonderful bees we made a relaxing film of them in the Machair which you can see here. Hope you enjoy...

Uist Cat Rescue is run solely by volunteers and they urgently need funding to help with the number of cats needing rescuing. Every pound donated is spent on the cats and kittens. Please could you share this post and donate if you are able to spare anything. Every pound helps!
Thank you
