No woodpeckers were harmed
Happy #WildlifeWednesday where here in #Drimnin we appear to be unintensionally tormenting woodpeckers at the #redsquirrel feeder.
We will make sure we spill a little next time we refill.

A wee bit of begging going on in the CalMac Ferries lochaline ferry queue this morning
Love it when you stay in #Drimnin and even on a daytrip out the wildlife litterally comes knocking at the window.

🌈Colours so intense and crisp🌈
Stunning sight, but pity the brief but decidely wintery shower couldn't have postponed for just 10 minutes until we had completed our jog along the #Drimnin road this morning😅

The wildlife's still here it's just easier to hear than see. Tonight the Tawny Owls were calling their little hearts out. You will need the sound on for this one.

As it's #RedSquirrelAppreciationDay (we think everyday should be🤣)
Here's a clip from #Drimnin today with one of our reds learning to use our homemade feeder, so we can return the original to Trees For Life to be reused in future red squirrel re-introduction projects.

Not sure the #Drimnin #redsquirrels are too enamoured with #StormBert
Maybe we should adapt the feeder to include a rain canopy (designs suggestions welcome)☂️☂️☂️

Another big 'Thank You' to Trees For Life and volunteers at the donor sites for our second batch of #RedSquirrels. This second batch are to reinforce those that were released here back in the spring.
#Drimnin residents and guests alike are thrilled when they spot one, and we are looking forward to many more sightings in the months to come😁
