Another view of the dozen Whooper Swans opposite Bruichladdich on the shore of Loch Indaal below Ard-Chruaidh outside Bowmore: One of them stretching its wings this time.

Bunnahabhain grey November day panorama from the veranda, Isle of Islay

The counterpart to the Bunnahabhain view from the veranda panorama from a visit in April, this is the same view on a mostly grey, dull and dreich November 2023 afternoon. The Paps of Jura and the rest of Jura have disappeared. Sgarbh Breac only just recognisable on the left. No chance of spotting Colonsay, let alone Mull.
Rocky Laphroaig shore and a glimpse of a barley boat, Isle of Islay
Image
A view from Laphroaig towards the Oa, the rocky shoreline just west of Laphroaig in front of us. The barley boat (unfortunately not sure which this one is) just about to disappear behind them on its way to Port Ellen. Towering over it the cliffs of the Oa.
