Vementry
It is lambing time, as previously mentioned. It is also foaling time for Shetland ponies, and as luck would have it I chanced upon Shetland Pony Breeders in Vementry, a spectacular place on a promontory up the voe from Aith.
Vementry is an incredible place, surrounded by inlets and islands and hills and lochs. There is one farmhouse here and a cottage for holiday rentals, although I had a look inside and it is very basic indeed!
I took Cristina to see the Shetland foals and in a week three more had been born on top of the one I saw last week, so this picture shows a foal only a few days old.
