An award-winning Stewartry poet and storyteller has embarked on his second trekking expedition in a year.
Tony Bonning pushed himself to the limit last September when he and horse Chief walked 650 miles from the Mull of Galloway to Dunnet Head in Caithness.
Now he’s off on another epic journey, this time round the Isle of Skye to glean local tales and folklore for a new book about kelpies – mythical water-horses.
