After a rather wild week weatherwise Sunday dawned chilly for May but with a blue sky and the welcome promise of sunshine. As the day progressed the sun continued to shine so we took advantage and went for a long drive. On the way home we stopped at the village of Dores situated at the eastern end of Loch Ness and sat at the picnic tables of The Dores Inn for a drink and to watch the world go by. Quite a few people come here especially at weekends to walk along the pebbly beach,play with their dogs and feed the ducks. The view down the loch to Fort Augustus with the wooden uprights of old piers still standing is quite stunning. Earlier this year we saw cormorants sitting on several posts with their wings outstretched to dry them before taking off to their next port of call.
