Tabin was my final stop in Malaysian Borneo. A resort deep in the jungle where wildlife sightings included orangutans, gibbons, hornbills and civets.

It was lovely to return to the West Coast of Scotland for a week in November 2024. Morvern has become one of my favourite places and it’s always a joy to go back especially when the weather was cold and the wildlife plentiful.
