The trees today were full of birds! Neil McMahon had a Ring Ouzel in a whitebeam by Port Askaig ferry terminal; Louise Muir had a Hawthorne full of 32 Field Fare and 46 Redwing by Craighouse; and I made a Barn Owl fall out of a gorse bush at Loch Gruinart (it was fine).
This morning on Loch Indaal there were 6 Common Scoter, one
Slavonian Grebe, 14 Red-Throated Divers, and a Little Egret, all spotted by Jim
Duncan. Mary-Ann Featherstone had eight late House Martin at Kildalton.
Yesterday there were some late Swallows at Kichoman, 17 Chough
at Machir Bay, 10 Long-Tailed Tits at Coultorsay Garden, and a Whinchat at Uiskentuie
all seen by George Jackson.
This afternoon Emma Watkins reports she’s almost certain she
spotted a pair of Lesser Yellow Legs in amongst the lapwing and curlew on the
second field on the right having turned into Killinallan Road. And a Yellow-Browed
Warbler was heard at Craighouse by Neil McMahon.
