Cattle on Inverlussa beach, Isle of Jura

An excursion to Islay’s neighbour Jura on a mostly cloudy November day a good number of years ago. Among other places we stopped at Inverlussa beach where a few cows were enjoying the beach instead of the tourists who during the summer stop here to visit the “Tea on the Beach” cafe in an old horsebox.

A view up the Sound of Islay from the Islay ferry on the way to Port Askaig on a hazy June evening. Rhuvaal lighthouse in the distance on the left. Colonsay in the far distance. Also a random (and annoyingly slightly out of focus) gull over the Sound.
