Blue boat on Loch nan Gillean
This boat is moored on Loch nan Gillean, which lies adjacent to the path from Cougie to Loch Affric. The photo was taken in mid-September.
Sunday fungi
These impressive beasties were all over some tree stumps at the end of the garden earlier in the week. Identification welcome.

How the Church of Scotland justifies its unelected Education Committee appointees; assumption, presumption, and privilege
Our petition to the Scottish Parliament seeking to remove these unelected representatives is still open for signature here
As regular readers will know, moves are afoot to remove the three Church nominees who sit, with no regard to the electoral process, on every Local Authority Education Committee in Scotland (you can help by simply signing our Parliamentary Petition here).
In England, the legal requirement is for two such representatives, one from the Church of England and one from the Catholic Church.

There is much be said about the situation developing in England, little of it complimentary, but that is not my present concern.
