a lovely and loving look a Scotland
Hugh loves his native country and spends his time observing the wonderment of its natural resources and wildlife. Hugh tells us captivating stories, starting in his childhood and takings us right up to today. I was positively thrilled by his tale of the Orca, and his son’s encounter with the true Monarch of the Glen. But even the stories of just watching a magpie in his back garden brought a smile to my face.
