About Me

My photo
I'm a simple Scottish girl with an unusual name and a strange obsession for nail polish! My aim is to capture what the eye sees, with a camera! Too much nail polish and never enough time. I have also started wildlife photography, which I enjoy very much. Welcome to my little world :-)

A Woodlouse On My Arm

 


This little fellow was in the bathroom and I worried the cats might get to him, so decided to put him out in the garden. By the time I walked to the back door to open it, he had crawled up my arm!! So I decided to get a photo....as you do ;-) This was taken on 7th September. Interesting fact - here in Scotland we often call Woodlice: Slaters.

So in other news, I managed to get out for a walk! I was so happy. Didn't over do it. It will probably take me a few weeks to get back into the swing of things.

  6. This is so tiny and pretty. Delicate that you might end up crashing it with finger nails.
