A bright, fairly calm sunny and dry day today until a bit of cloud and rain set in for a while in late afternoon.
Marcus Covell sent in a note for Friday reporting a Red Kite at the Woollen Mill and two adult White-tailed Eagles at Dun Nosebridge.
Robbie Brookes was out pre-dawn/sunrise and found 2 Woodcock on the roadside at Lyrabus and 3 more on the RSPB Woodland Trail. Later he had the exciting sight of a White-tailed Eagle take a Barnacle Goose on the flats at Gruinart.
My birding friends Alan and Margaret Heavisides left Islay today, but had time to check out the calm waters of Loch Indaal on their way to the ferry this morning finding 10+ Slavonian Grebes, 15 Long-tailed Ducks, 12 Red-throated Divers and 80 Common Scoter.
