Sunday 31st January

The wind this morning was a lot calmer, possibly the lull before the storm, as the wind is already picking up again this evening and all the ferries coming and leaving Islay tomorrow are cancelled.
On the big garden bird watch today, here at home, we had the following, a ringtail Hen Harrier, 19 Pheasant, 15 Jackdaw, 26 Goldfinch, 77 Chaffinch, 21 Starling, 1 Robin, 2 Dunnock, 9 House Sparrow, 1 Wren and a Blackbird. No sign of any Great Tit, Blue Tit, Greenfinch or the pesky Sparrowhawk let alone a Brambling....
