After all the heavy rain this week, it is nice to see the sunshine again.

If you click on the photo to make it larger you can just see the light dusting of snow on Islay in the background.

New Printer Working

2012-01-23T17:48:00.001Z

At last we have a printer that is working, new computer was supposed to be compatible with existing printer, but old printer didn't have the hardware - how is that compatible ?

Computers !!

2012-01-16T19:58:00.000Z

Today was a day of frustration, eventually got most things to work on the new system, except the printer! Now mastering a new e-mail system - why do people have to change things!

Davaar Cave Painting

2012-01-11T16:03:00.004Z

Davaar Island and its caves can be accessed from Campbeltown Harbour via a causeway, tide times are available in Reception. Rough terrain to the caves, stout shoes and good mobility required. Click on the link below for the BBC One Show report shown last night.

He's at it again

2011-10-30T15:33:00.000Z

This time he was looking for his tea.

He's back

2011-10-29T10:06:00.001+01:00

Poor little creatures must be getting quite fed up with him.

Heron Back

2011-10-27T11:23:00.002+01:00

He had a nice time at Muasdale the other day and like our usual visitors is back for more.

Heron on Touring Park

Thank you for your company, looking forward to the new season.

MOK Bike Ride

2011-10-16T15:49:00.000+01:00

Took part in the first Mull of Kintyre Bike Ride, had a great time, weather was kind to us thank goodness, nothing but rain previously for weeks.

Did the Family Fun Ride, various distances could be completed, we decided to do the whole route = 10 miles.

View from turning point at Kildalloig - there was a strong head wind coming back, which at one point, when going up the hill (near the cemetery) it felt like I was going backwards.

At long last a sunset

Bright and Breezy Day

2011-09-26T12:17:00.001+01:00

Nice to see the sun again, still a bit breezy though.

I think we are in for a wet day again tomorrow and then things should improve - temperatures rising for the rest of the week - whoopee.

Fabulous Day

2011-09-18T14:20:00.000+01:00

Fantastic visibility today from touring park, same stunning views from Caravan Holiday Homes and Self Catering Apartments..

Paps of Jura are so clear.

Beautiful bright day.

2011-09-17T12:12:00.001+01:00

Nice bright morning after the over night rain.

Deja Vu

2011-09-15T09:17:00.001+01:00

South facing hedge

Once again the buddleia and fuschia bushes have been hit by the wind and salt.

Just like in May they are dying back (see 14th June).

The other side of that south facing hedge.

I wonder if Kintyre will be covered in ½ dead and ½ alive trees again. They had only just got going again, what a strange year we are having.

Sunset at last

2011-09-14T19:39:00.003+01:00

Brighter Morning

2011-09-14T10:06:00.001+01:00

Brighter morning this morning, still a little breezy but nothing compared with the last 48 hours.

Having said that I don't think the winds were any worse than what we had at the end of May.

Spotted Roe Deer on the park this morning, but they scampered off before I could get to my camera.

Stormy Day

2011-09-12T13:11:00.004+01:00

Well the windy conditions are at their worst at the moment, according to a website I'm watching.

Stormy seas and high tide, wonder how much seaweed will be left. Seas turning light brown due to the peat in the water running down off the hills and into the sea.

Swallow chicks tucked down in the nest, not much flying being done today.

Sea not as calm as it was on 26th August.

Save our Coastguards

2011-09-10T14:11:00.001+01:00

http://saveourcoastguard.blogspot.com/

We have signed and support the petition against closure of Clyde Coastguard. Local knowledge of the seas and area is vital for a successful rescue. Clyde Coastguard monitor a vast area, including Kintyre.
Campbeltown Lifeboat is launched via their instructions.

Swallow Chicks

2011-09-09T14:05:00.000+01:00

Swallow chicks from yesterday, no longer on the nest.

Mum flying in to feed them.

More Swallow chicks photo last taken 28th August, growing fast !

Another brood

2011-09-08T17:20:00.000+01:00

These Swallow chicks are older than the ones mentioned earlier, don't think it will be long before they start flying.

Very windy day

2011-09-06T10:52:00.002+01:00

Very windy day today, the beach was looking nice, just hope the rough seas don't leave too much seaweed.

Sunset 31.8.11

2011-08-31T20:09:00.005+01:00

Some heavy clouds around, but right opposite us was a wonderful gap to allow a lovely sunset.

Visitor's photograph taken 24.8.11

2011-08-30T07:59:00.001+01:00

After the heavy hail storm and thunder we had a fabulous rainbow, I only managed half of it, (see report on the day) but a visitor on the touring park was able to photograph most of it.

Another brood of baby swallows

2011-08-28T13:24:00.001+01:00

2nd B

2nd brood - hope they grow enough to make the long journey south in September.

What big mouths they have !!

Stunning Day

2011-08-26T14:20:00.000+01:00

A lovely warm day today.

Plenty of oystercatchers along the shoreline as well.

Beautiful day again

2011-08-25T10:22:00.001+01:00

After the heavy over night rain, we are having a super bright morning.

Thunder Storm & Sunset 24.8.11

2011-08-24T20:45:00.006+01:00

A sudden very heavy shower produced thunder and hail stones, then a rainbow over the hill.

An hour later we had another lovely sunset.
