Recordist's notes
On my way to Corrachadh Mor (the little-known westernmost point of Great Britain) I stopped by the nearby lighthouse where two unaccompanied border collies greeted me. No one else was around at the time, and the two dogs followed me around for the rest of the day. We played some fetch and I shared my lunch, it was nice to not be so alone in such an isolated place. I never did find their owners (if they had any), at the end on the way back to my camp site they followed me for quite some time before running off somewhere else. In this recording they were barking at the water for some reason.
