Just as I was busy prepping the bar-b-cue this afternoon I was called outside by my brother who said he had just seen a pure white Swallow. Sure enough I grabbed the camera and went out to find ‘Snowy’ perched on the croft’s wires. It certainly was pure white, but not showing the red eye of an albino. More than pleased to receive comments regarding the bird. Unfortunately the weather was not ideal for the photos but obviously that did not stop me taking plenty. I am guessing the bird is a juvenile from one of the many nests around the croft. Hopefully it will still be around tomorrow and the sun may be shining!!

My sister in law has just read this entry and is querying my prepping of the barbie. She seems to think she did it!!
