Friday 28th February

 Light southerly winds and sunshine.

Gary T. was up at Garbh Breac, north of Bunnahabhain this morning notching up a number of raptors: 5 Buzzards, 2 Golden Eagles and 1 White-tailed Eagle, with 2 Sparrowhawks at Staoisha plantation.

Kathy & John Evans returned to Islay  for another birding visit and were out on the Rhinns gaining great views of a pair of sub-adult White-tailed Eagles near Cladville and both immature and adult Golden Eagles SW of Beinn Tart a Mhill.

Clive McK. was watching from Creag Mhor and Gruinart where 7 Little Egrets were seen this evening, while in the morning he had a count of 29 Skylarks feeding on RSPB wild bird cover crops then going up on to territories on the adjacent hills.
