Hi Woofers!
McDaisy, MacHolly, Miss MacSnowflake
and Mr McBrambles here again!
It's getting crowded down here on the
camp site! We have had Motorhomes turn up and fill the horizon.
Caravans are now parking in our field so we can't have a wee in our
normal places!
It seems that the world has decided to
go away on holiday and descend on our little camp site!
Old Two Legs said that it may not be
very polite to take the ferrets for a walk around our field and let
them poo outside the caravan door 'cos the campers would only get
upset!
So, we all pile into the car and head
off to our walking path near Loch Frisa!
Now, when the ferrets are with us we
don't normally have a long run, distance like. We do however stay out
the same sort of time 'cos although the ferrets don't want to run,
they do want to, well, Ferret!
They are both prize Ferreters and set
to investigating every nook and cranny as well as every hole under
every rock around.
Mr McBrambles
even managed to fall into one of the small streams as he was
ferreting alongside an overhanging rock!
He was a bit
shocked and needed a cuddle from OTL and a wipe down before being put
down again to continue Ferreting!
Because of the
gear OTL has to carry for the ferrets and us he has to leave the
camera in the car, so, we don't have any pictures of Mr McBrambles
doing his famous dive into the water!
Back at the
caravan we all had a snooze while OTL cleaned the ferrets stuff and
made their bed for them.
The Missus was
having problems with her photos for a blog and had steam coming out
of here ears!
To help her calm
down we all decided to go to Aros Park again and have another walk
around the lake.
It was super sun
shine, so OTL said he would have a play with the Infrared Thingy
Wossit Camera 'cos it is supposed to produce some super work when the
sun is shining.
As soon as we got
there, the sun went behind the clouds!
OTL said he would
make the best of it and try some experiments with the settings!
We started off at
the docks and we had some fun climbing all over the rocks.

OTL even took another picture of
Tobermory across the bay!

Then he took a picture of me 'Looking
Good'!
 |
| Me, Looking Good! |
You see I do a very good 'Looking Good'
photo, better than MacHolly I reckon!
Around the corner we arrive at the lake
and the clouds made a dramatic reflection on the water, so, Click,
Click went OTL and that was another in the bag!
 |
| Reflections. |
Right up the other end of the lake
there were loads of reeds and Lily Pads, so OTL slid all the way down
the bank so he could get a shot at water level. Sliding down the bank
was a bit dangerous for him 'cos his weight means that his boots had
trouble gripping the earth and leaves ans he headed towards the
water!
Lucky for him, he managed to stop
before doing a McBrambles, you know, 'Splash'!
Then it was just a matter of getting
the shot composed and back up the bank again!

As we went further around, we came
across a stream that had a bridge over it, so you can cross without
getting your paws wet. I decided to be different and cross by wading
through the stream. Well, that was the idea until I spotted something
under the bridge. It was then a case of a 'Hasty Retreat' and across
the bridge so OTL can protect me from whatever it was!
 |
| There be Summat Under There! |
After the run around, we headed back to
the caravan 'cos there were rain clouds on the way and we didn't want
to get caught in the open!
Back at the caravan OTL was still
playing about with the camera trying out different settings and he
caught MacHolly in one of her 'Dreamy' moments!

| MacHolly doing and Ethereal! |
Mind you, I didn't know he had taken
one of me, snoozing on the cushion!

| Me, doing a 'Snoozy' |
So, look out for us again on Saturday when by then we should be home and checking all the sniffs!
See you soon!
McDaisy, MacHolly, Miss MacSnowflake
and Mr McBrambles!
