Wednesday 3rd July

A mostly wet, grey, drizzly and quite breezy day again with occasional bursts of dry and sunshine.

Linden sent in a report of an email received at RSPB Gruinart this morning from an unknown observer of a possible Great Grey Shrike up at Ardnave. Exactly where and when it was seen, whether it was indeed a shrike and whether it was seen today is unclear - but you never know...........

Meanwhile, some more solid birding news from Mary Redman who again saw the Chough family at the half dozen Ravens down at Currie Sands along with a female Hen Harrier at Portnahaven, Sparrowhawk at Easter Ellister where the old faithful drake Velvet Scoter has been noted for yet another year on the roadside loch.
