Tuesday 30th April

A second day of grey skies and fairly continuous light rain with a south and south-easterly moderate breeze.

With the weather as it is, there were no bird records coming in today, though when I passed Port Charlotte today I stopped and made a brief count of the the number of nests in the rookery there. It is very active at present and it seems there are about 35 nests. In the past 10 years or so there have been up to 40-50 nests. If anyone has rookeries near them on Islay, do count nests and let me know so I can add this useful information to the Argyll database.
