A beautiful sunny walk in Laide Wood. With the varied wildlife filling the air with their song and dance... and a chaotic labrador 🐕 🐦 🐦‍⬛ 🦌

I've just discovered that #UllapoolHarbour has a Webcam set up near the Harbour, so this is the view currently. Plus if you need to know tide times, current weather or ships in port, this is the place to go: ullapool-harbour.co.uk/live-… @UllapoolB sharing for our followers elsewhere

Books from the #Highlands One of the areas we pride ourselves in at @UllapoolB is our #localfiction either by Authors who live in the Highlands / Islands, or by those who have set their novels here. The choices change frequently, but it's always a joy to talk about these books.
