I think this will be an interesting season at Loch Arkaig - who is going to take residence is the big question?
For me it doesn't matter who, just as long as the nest is occupied.

Glider said:Love your rolling mist and sunset videos on nest 1 and 2 Geemeff. Your choice of accompanying music is perfect. The Loch Arkaig setting is truly stunning.
Thank you! The scenery is beautiful at any time, but that particular day it was breathtaking and I thought it should be preserved. Glad you liked the videos.
