Marine biologist and professional diver Monty Halls is back in the Highlands and Islands of Scotland, living the good life and working as a volunteer wildlife ranger in the Outer Hebrides.

Monty has begun to restore walking trails that have been abandoned for years, but he needs to raise several thousand pounds to pay for marker posts and trail guides. At the North Uist Agricultural Show, where Reuben fails to shine in the dog obedience competition, Monty meets with Niall Leveson-Gower, who runs the local hunting lodge, and hatches plans for a great feast at his hotel to showcase local produce and raise funds.

His plan is to take people on a food journey - from the sea, to the shore, to the croft, to the hill - taking in seafood, farm produce and game.

Monty also climbs to the top of North Uist's highest mountain, catches a rare glimpse of sea eagles teaching their young to fly, and sees a stranded whale that turns out to be a species seldom seen because it lives so deep in the ocean.

Preparing for the feast, Monty learns to slice smoked salmon, stalk stag for venison, and gather razor clams. He also visits local artist Richard Bramble to collect some hand-painted plates as auction items, complete with signatures and a paw print from Reuben.

Guests arrive to the skirl of the pipes and the pop of champagne corks. When the final tot-up is made, the feast and auction have raised nearly £2,500. Show less
