A cloudy, dull day, but dry until late afternoon when a few spots of rain ensued,
I wrongly attributed the sighting of a Ring Ousel and Great Skuas
yesterday – the acknowledgement should go to visitor Peter Gill, who sent in further
notes today: “Today we heard a Great Spotted
Woodpecker near to Loch Allan, also there were two Little Grebe on Loch Ballygrant
+ a Chiffchaff seen/heard in Ballygrant woods. Also 2 Little Grebes busy
building a nest towards north end of Loch Finlaggan. Also a Golden Eagle seen
over road to Bunnahabhain”
James How sent in the following notes:
At Ballinaby: Whitethroat singing and a report of 2 calling Corncrakes.
On Loch Gruinart: a total of 58 Whimbrel. Dunlin and Ringed Plover starting to move:
Dunlin 230, Ringed Plover 85, Sanderling 1, Turnstone 2.
