Haggis and their greatest threat – doggy poop bags

Highland Haggis are sadly nearly extinct,

Full doggy poop bags have them hoodwinked

They think them juicy slugs or lovely butterfly

They gobble them up. Then they Die!

Midges Myths and Facts at Gairloch Museum. I was delighted to visit the wonderful Gairloch Museum today in it’s newly renovated building.

So much to see that I will have to return another day to take it all in.

I am absolutely thrilled to see my illustration from Midges Myths and Facts at the Midge Exhibit, upstairs in the nature section.

The old Melvaig Driftwood sign was looking a bit weathered. As this year’s Hagglets have just started to leave the Haggii Holt in preparation for Midge feasting, I knew it was important to get the new Haggii sign up.

We have had beautiful weather again here at Oran Mara, The Last House before the Lighthouse and electric screwdriver in hand I got the sign up.

Seven wee Hagglets have been born this year and I want to do my best to make sure they survive. The rare Highland Haggis needs all the protection we can give it!

Remember the main threat to the rare Highland Haggii is doggy poop bags, but fast vehicles at dawn and dusk, when the Heroine, Hog and their wee Hagglets emerge to Midge feast can decimate the Haggii Huddle population.

To learn more about the Highland Haggii read Haggis History & Facts, written and illustrated by me, Mandy (protector of several secret Haggii Holts).
