Trotternish

Another day off today since it was meant to be a lovely clear sunny day.  Perhaps not surprisingly Skye managed to provide almost all seasons in one day during our trip to Trotternish.  The main target for the trip was a visit for lunch to the Pie Cafe at the Glenview Inn - very nice it was.  Then off for a circuit of the top end of the peninsula.  The light improved as the afternoon progressed with some interesting views of the Storr and Beinn Edra as we headed back towards Portree.  Also, while I was taking a shot of Beinn Edra a White-tailed Eagle appeared overhead - the shot below was the best I could manage, not too bad given it was a fair distance off.
