We Call it Home


My images and stories from Scotland.

We are both Scots, I hail from Aberdeen, the town of my birth and Lossiemouth, our home town; my lovely lady Jo is originally a Gourock lass, we met on the wonder that was the internet.
We moved back home to Scotland in 2022, to a very rural location which we now absolutely love. The walks, the wildlife, the sky.
As an amateur photographer I am making the most of every moment I can, I am out walking or wandering our “patch” as often as possible, almost always with a camera.

This is where I’d like to share memories of those wanderings and musings.

I no longer do mainstream (anti)social media, it is ruining our lives!

I have started using PeerTube to share my time lapse videos and any birds / wildlife clips I can make, I’d love it if you have a look some time.

Where?

I have realised that there’s a little more intimacy in blogging. Unlike mainstream social media, where there are millions of people who can potentially appear on your pages, blogging is far more selective, in fact it can be difficult to connect with people of a like mind, I think. I (kind of) stopped Facebook, Instagram…

Friends at the Cam Site

No, it’s not a typo, the cam site is where I have set up my wildlife camera, there’s a Badger sett nearby so I’m hoping to catch their activity in the area. For a long time I only ever saw one badger or several Badgers but only ever one at a time? This is a…

Listen

Edit. This was posted live from my picnic spot this morning. I ended up doing a 5.4 mile loop, saw no Eagles or Ospreys … yet but, what a beautiful, peaceful walk. Time in nature. 🙂

Coppee!

What are your morning rituals? What does the first hour of your day look like? There’s no traffic here, no noisy neighbours for the most part so nothing to waken us up other than light around the curtains and the fact that I am a very light sleeper. I tend to waken first so I’ll…

A Good Day for a Walk

I’ve become a bit of a walk addict I think, I start to fret if I can’t get out there but sometimes make do with a treadmill walk / run, my fast walk is considered a run by some apps 🙂 Today, however, was a sod it, I’m going day! It’s been pouring, sleeting, blowing…
