Malcolm e mailed through this morning to say that there were 25 Pale bellied Brent Geese on Loch Indaal just across from the hall at Bruichlaadich. He too had noticed that had they had been seen for a few weeks. On our way to Bowmore at midday, we counted 14 down at Gortan. We also saw a small flock of Lapwing at the outside of Bowmore and coming home there was a flock of around 60 on the wing over Rockside... wonder if this has got anything to do with Campbell's weather prediction, a possible sign of some cold weather to come in a few days time, a bit like me with the Fulmars and stormy weather to follow....
On a lighter note last night I read that BTO had been asking folk about the collective name for Robins, and in the top 10 responses was "reliant", wrong track.....
