A pine marten and her two adorable babies have set up home inside a rubbish bin.
The two young martens were snuggled up together inside the bin while their mum stood on top of it protecting them.
Staff at the Ben Nevis Visitor Centre in Lochaber were alerted to the furry creatures after customers told them there was a “racket” coming from their bins.
Information assistant Lianne Mclennan said: “They were very calm and peaceful and looked adorable.”
