Tuesday 6th June

There was quite a bit of cloud this morning, but then the weather went back to form and it turned out sunny and warm as usual.

Bird news from our visiting birders -  Cuckoos at Lagavulin & Ardtalla; Grasshopper Warbler near the airport; 30 Chough at Machir Bay and Spotted Flycatcher at Bridgend Woods - thanks to you all for your contributions.

I was pleased to see that nesting waders are still able to survive outside of nature reserves, with sightings of several pairs of Curlew, Lapwing (both species clearly with young) and drumming Snipe up around Ballimony.

However Louise Muir tops it all with two Minke Whales seen in the Sound of Jura.
