An unexpected reminder of the transitory nature of life and flight

An immensity of space

And into the woods

and out again

I have never walked across frozen sand before

through a watercolour world

of frozen waters

The only thing missing, a great flock of salmon pink flamingos glowing against the dark cliffs and snowy peaks, being herded by Tilda Swinton back into her exotic aviary. It did start raining by the time we got back to Nairn to wait for our train.

Still.
