Sunday 27th July 2025

A wet morning was followed by a gradually improving afternoon.

Mary R. reported that the pair of adult White-tailed Eagles in the Claddach/Cladville area have been actively hunting Greylag Geese. Around lunchtime, Ed B had a Great Skua flying over Cornabus, and, at much the same time, Clive McK counted 95 newly arrived Dunlin in Loch Gruinart with a Peregrine "annoying them". He also saw 2 Whimbrel flying south, while 210+ Sand Martins were feeding over the estuary.
