Well, summer did not last long - the northern European gloom has re-asserted itself and we're back down to 12 degrees!
Still, the Speyside Way seems busy with back-packers - perhaps more than we've seen for quite a few years, and the Visitor Centre is busy too - though not actually this morning, as it happens. We now have an added attraction next door where the tearoom has re-opened for the summer, in the original part of the Aberlour railway station.
Out on the track the birds are in full song - is it my imagination or are there more sedge warblers around this year than usual? Their raucous chattering song seems to be coming from
every bush. Any thoughts?
If you would like a reminder of what these enthusiastic wee songsters sound like, follow this external link for a couple of snippets of sedge warbler song:
