Wow, residential 2 is in full swing and we have been blessed with some sunshine! We took advantage of the good forecast yesterday and headed up Goatfell with the hopes of getting a view. It was hot and muggy on the way up, but thankfully not too midgey, so we were able to spend a bit of time exploring the flora and fauna of the mountain environment. One highlight was seeing a couple of big fat juvenile cuckoos being fed by their diminutive adopted parents- little meadow pipits, working hard to feed their greedy charges.
The team did well to get to the top in good time, and beat the encroaching clouds to get a misty view from the top. All in all a great day out on the hill.
