Tuesday 4th January

Stuart MacDonald who had been over staying at the New Year had seen 2 male Goosanders on the pool just beside Red Lodge on the High road on his way down to Port Ellen and the ferry yesterday.
Today, James had been in at Loch Skerrols and had counted 6 Coots, 29 Whooper Swans, 4 Pochard, 5 Siskin, a Sparrowhawk and commented on the large number of Wigeon present.
I was speaking with James over the holiday period and he was saying that along with Eleanor, they had raised the best part of £3,200 on their epic Kayak across Scotland back in September, so feel free to send any spare cash you may have to swell the coffers even more. I certainly know that they raised far more than they expected, well done to the two of them, and to Sally as back up crew on the ground rather than on the water!
