Clear skies, sunshine and light winds with a high pressure system hanging over the UK suggesting this amazing weather may continue for some time yet.
An addition to yesterday's bird sightings comes from Martin Armstrong and Bob Davison who were at the S. Hide Gruinart in the evening finding 6 Ruff and a Wood Sandpiper. Two broods of Greylag goslings were noted near Sanaigmore by Andrew Lear.

Hide, Gruinart seen by Andrew Lear with David D. finding a Marsh Harrier near Risabus on The Oa. Steve & Julia Garner are visiting again and found 6 Crossbills in the pines near Bunnahabhain this morning.
Othe than that, there are various records on Cuckoos here and there, a White-tailed Eagle way up towards Rhuvaal, a few Sanderlings at Rhuba Ban, plus several adders and an early Marsh Fritillary butterfly.
