Thursday 20th November


Another cold day with frost and wintry showers overnight, but clear and sunny for much of the day.

Morven Laurie of NatureScot kindly sent in the first international count of geese for the season carried out on 18/19 November. The totals were 33,307 Barnacle Geese, 5,157 White-fronted Geese and 1,442 Greylags.


The only other bird news today came from Gary T. who found the 3 Snow Buntings up at Ardnave (photo below). They were with a Reed Bunting and flushed by a passing Hen Harrier. There was also a Golden Eagle seen.
