I’m intrigued by the conversation these two butterflies might be having - I think one is a peacock butterfly and the other a red admiral?

Haha, ummm, we wouldn’t hold our breath for that, dear American.🤣 The only way you know it’s summer in Scotland (hell, in the UK in general) is because the rain gets warmer.🌧

Wearing a hat, long sleeved thermal top, joggers and trainers in 21°c because it's all you've got to keep the midges from eating you alive. #scottishsummer
Thunder bolts and lightning now and massive hailstones that are so big they’re lying on the grass like snow ⚡️⛈️ think that’s the BBQ postponed 😂🏴😎 #YellowWeatherWarning #ScottishSummer
Great effort by the young people from the @tannahillcentre.bsky.social youthgroup #Paisley who planted more than 100 #Aspens #comraich #animalsanctuary in baking conditions. Fortunately the Ayrshire soil was still sodden 😀 #scottishsummer. #volunteering

Nothing like a light breeze to brighten the day...
I think it might rain? Just a feeling… #scottishsummer #climatechange

There aren't *that* many evenings in Scotland, even in the height of summer, when you can eat outside, comfortably. Tonight is one of those evenings #Rejoice #ScottishSummer ☀️
Puffins on a rock, with raindrops
Somehow managed to pick the only afternoon of rain during a heatwave for our trip out to Isle of May. Puffins looking just as fabulous #lifeinFife #Scottishsummer
Summer morning
even the air is quiet
soaking in the rays.
Insects lie low, silent birds;
but life races forth unheard.
Summer human
finds her own peace
in glorious days.

No midgies (here) at least!

Oh! It’s raining again! 🙄

My downstairs neighbour was furiously fiddle-ing away to some trad folk and the sun came out so I was called to balance things out.
You're welcome.

Just called the Furry One in Birmingham and he’s there with his fur out as it’s so hot. I had to close the window as I was cold #ScottishSummer
Hope it stays sunny for you guys

Happy shopping 😎
Two men walk along a beach at sunset, pulling red kayaks behind them across the sand. The sky glows with warm midsummer light, and the soft waves reflect the fading sun. A quiet, golden moment at the edge of the day.
Midsummer slipped by quietly, but the sunsets stayed long enough to notice. Grateful for golden light at 10pm and the kind of evenings you don’t want to rush

A vibrant field of blooming sunflowers stretches into the distance under a soft blue sky. The foreground flowers are in sharp focus, their bright yellow petals and green leaves glowing in natural light, creating a sense of warmth and calm.
Took a deep breath here. Just me and a thousand sunflowers quietly reminding me to face the light, even when it’s been a week. Or a year. 🌻

Last night (Friday, 20 June) it was such a beautiful night I found myself outside just enjoying the late night sunshine. These photos were taken around 10:30pm.

Kudos to all at Leith Festival Gala day, closed early for weather. But Cambridge Ave Street party has just started... #Leithlife #Scottishsummer
Hoping to complete this tomorrow, if the weather is on my side #PokemonGo #ScottishSummer
Welcome to summer in Glasgow - but at least the architecture still looks brilliant even when it's bucketting down (as it was at times during this morning's dog walk around the Botanic Gardens).
#glasgow #glasgowtoday #architecture #glasgowbotanicgardens #rain #summer #scotland #scottishsummer
it was exhilarating, but feel for the nesting birds and fruiting trees, lots of ripped off leaves and fruit... the warmth we had in May is a dream.. #scottishsummer #scottishartist #fyp #openstudio #talesfromthesea #unchartedwaters
Not sure my garden could be any wetter 🙄 #Scottishsummer
It’s chaos in flip flops (thongs)!
Pray for cloud cover!
Pray for rain!

Runkeeper app screenshot of my morning run. 5.72 km. Time 36.40. 6.24 min/km. 438 calories.
This mornings run. Was meant to be a rest day but I find rest hard. I think that's the Scottish summer finished for another year. Windy and wet seems to be on the agenda for the foreseeable.
Ach well, it was good while it lasted.

The views from the JMS building at Glasgow Uni are beautiful on a sunny Scottish day 😍 @uofglasgow.bsky.social #scottishsummer #universityofglasgow
