A bright day with few clouds about as we set off , just after 9 A.M. for the trip to Elgol. On the way over we spotted a small basking shark (only about 3 metres!) which was slowly hoovering up the plankton. Once at Elgol a sharp climb up to the public conveniences and a take away cup of tea before heading to the beach to photos of the views across to the Cullin mountains on Skye.
The second leg of the trip was across the bay to Loch Coruisk. A spectacular loch nestled in the mountains, with views out to sea and lots of Common Seals basking on the rocks.
A few red deer were visible on the skyline so I took a few shots in an attempt to get some silhouettes.
When we arrived back at the lodge there were two Red deer stags within a hundred yards!
