As you go up the stairs there were outline silhouettes of birds that can be seen in the area.
These are just a few that are on display. The landing then leads onto a Children's area, where local children have crafted local wildlife. There is also several child friendly displays.
Along the corridor were a wonderful array of photographs each group sponsored by local firms/groups and taken by local photographers.
I have been struggling with how to reply to comments/questions for sometime and have tried different ways. From this I have decided that I will reply on my next post for a while and see if this works. To this end here are replies from my previous post:
I used to do craft fairs but since moving here to the Isle of Lewis I no longer sell my craftwork. We have been too busy with our cottage and other projects so I craft for family and friends now.
I don't mind anyone using my patterns or copying something that I do, I am honoured that you take inspiration from my work.
I think the lace/buttons would make amazing napkin rings, simply glue them to either plastic or wooden rings.
We do have the same saying Red skies at night...but I would say Shepherds delight rather than Sailor.
As always I do thank you for your visit here and your continued interest and comments.
See you soon.
I like the idea of bird outlines as that is how we see a good amount of them. We are trying to make our ginger loaf last all week!
ReplyDeleteThis looks like a fantastic exhibition to visit! Thanks for sharing x
ReplyDeleteWhat a great display, it certainly demonstrates just how much there is to see in the area, and that's wildlife alone. You live in such a wonderful place.

ReplyDeleteWhat an interesting place to visit ! I like the otters they are so cute !
ReplyDeleteIf you answer questions on your blog most of the people don't come back to visit a blog twice, as I do. I comment but never come back otherwise it would take to much time. If you visit 5 blogs and you have to come back then it makes 10 visits and no time for others. I reply by email if there is a question or an explanation to give. Most of the bloggers have an email and that it easy. I read the comment and I answer right away.
Now that is the kind of exhibition that I like. I love anything to do with nature/wildlife etc. We have a very small, permanent RSPB exhibit at Fair Haven Lake. Best, Jane x
ReplyDeleteThe exhibition looked like a great place to pass some time. I especially loved to see what the children had created. X
ReplyDeleteWhat a great exhibition.
ReplyDeleteHugs-x-
I love wildlife exhibitions. So much to learn about them.
ReplyDeleteThat is a cool display. I’m always trying to figure out what bird is flying...crows and turkey vultures I have figured out. Interesting turn of phrase especially since you’re on an island dependant upon those sailors. We say,” Red sky at morning, sailors take warning; red skies at night, sailors delight.” And I have seen it proven false quite often! ☺️
ReplyDeleteYou do have Birds of Prey! And your chickens can roam free! How lucky you are!!!
ReplyDeleteNow I have to look up "Ness"! :-) When I hear it, I think of Loch Ness and etc. But there are obviously more than one "Ness".
Happy Full Super Snow Moon!

Nice exhibit to wander about and learn something new. I'm sure you enjoyed it with your friend. Have a happy day! ♥
ReplyDelete"Struggling with how to reply to comments/questions..."
ReplyDeleteGuess all bloggers, deal with this.
I choose _not_ to "reply," in my own blog Comments. Because this presumes, that the Dear Reader, has to come back, and look at that post's Comments, _again_. I don't. I don't have the time to do that.
My way of "Saying Thank You," to those who Comment on my blog, is to Read/Comment in their blog.
S-i-m-p-l-e...
And if a Dear Reader asks a question, I reply to it, in _their_ blog Comments. Give a link to the post, where they asked... So if they forget, like I do, they can click the link, and have their memory refreshed.
Just sayin'.....
Happy Full Super Snow Moon!

I too struggle with replying to comments as people tend to ask similar things. I had only this morning considered replying in a blog post and will adopt that too.
ReplyDeleteI reply in a blog post as I havent mastered how else to do it. Lovely place you visited there, enjoyed the trip you took us on, such a wealth of information and childrens involvement is ace.
ReplyDeleteWhat an interesting exhibition. I like the bird outlines.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you and your friend were able to have an adventure before your exercise class.. you are such a go-getter! I'm also having trouble with blogger.. I used to get my comments emailed to me to approve.. and I could email back if there was a question. But that just disappeared after blogger made some changes and then many people can't comment anymore.. what a mess. But I do try to visit and comment on all bloggers that comment on mine. ((hugs)), Teresa :-)
ReplyDeleteHi Teresa, you have to sign into blogger settings delete your email to subscribe for notifications, save, then add your email to subscribe to get notifications and save again. Hope this helps
Deletewhat an adventure! I answer people's questions on the blog post in the comments, I figure if they want to see the answer they will check back. Blogger is lacking at making it easy.
ReplyDeleteThat exhibition seems like the perfect way to spend an enjoyable and informative hour or two. Glad you had fun.
ReplyDeleteWow! that's great!
ReplyDeleteI love those beautiful children's paintings.
What a great informative display!
ReplyDeleteKudos to everyone involved. I am sure that I would very much enjoy a visit there.
ReplyDeleteHello!
ReplyDeleteSuch a lovely visit with you today.
You always inspire me, you know.
Thank you so for your card!
We all were so excited!!!
Madison and Nicolas are happily married and we are all beginning to return to regular life. Slowly! : )
Wonderful displays!
ReplyDeleteNice place to visit with your friend. I miss being a vendor at times. I sold my photography. Mostly smaller pieces which usually didn't make much profit. Now I'm in to other things.
ReplyDeleteThis is a wonderful learning centre for all ages. It's good that so many groups have got involved with putting the displays together. Wishing you a good weekend.
ReplyDeleteI did enjoy your photographs, this looks a very good exhibition.
ReplyDeleteAll the best Jan
We have a similar saying in our house - red sky at night: shepherd's house is on fire! ;-)
