Our walk on Sunday didn't quite turn out as planned - we ended up letting the train to the strain to our starting point. We were going to do a circular walk around Drummuir but that can wait till another day - instead we walked the 6 miles from Drummuir Station back to Dufftown Station.
The train departing from Platform One:
A wooden carving of a man's head - I have since found out that the carving was done by chainsaw by The Carvery:
We passed the picturesque church at Botrophine:
I love taking photos of the signs and waymarkers on our walks - the first one marks The Isla Way and the second one just indicates the proximity of the railway tracks:
Andy made a friend as we passed the Drummuir Walled Garden and it was so funny to see this small pack of Soay sheep charging across the field to say hello to us:
Some fantastic views to the hills in the distance:
And a wibbly wobbly bridge just before we made it back to Dufftown Station:
I am loving our walks - a majority of them are within 20 miles of where we live but are places that we knew nothing about. It is so much fun finding more about the area you live in.
Pop over to the Skywatch blog to see more skies from around the world.

Looks like a great place for a walk! Those rolling hills are especially lovely. You're lucky to live within twenty miles of such a beautiful place...

You came across all kinds of fascinating subjects for photos. The soft sky shots with the emerald green fields are gorgeous! This is how I picture Scotland.
