We love the way natural mosses and lichens are slowly claiming this sign. The Insh Marshes are one of the largest and most important inland wetland areas in the UK, supporting a variety of wild and plant life, with 850 hectares is managed by RSPB Scotland. The marshes are home to large populations of breeding waders, including Curlews, Lapwings, Redshanks and Snipes

Happy Burns Night everyone 🥃!

Look what we've found! This gorgeous juvenile haggis (Haggis scoticus) was sleeping in a pile of autumn leaves in the garden at Aonach. We gave him some restorative shortbread and he toddled off into the forest humming ‘Auld Lang Syne’ 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿.
