Sat 17th May

As we went out today, we were fortunate to see the Osprey sitting on a telegraph pole which was beside the road. As we came along, we were thinking of another Buzzard, but it was a second or two before we actually realised what we were seeing and so close. it had a fish too, presumably caught in Loch Gorm! Some anglers had been saying that they had seen an Osprey fishing in Loch Skerrols earlier on in the week. The 7 cygnets still remain at Carnain while there are reports of some young Shelduck ducklings out and about. IKB
