Thanks to Malcolm O. for blogging for me while I was away last week. I came back to Islay yesterday in moderate winds but heavy rain that had the roads flooded in places. Today was a little brighter, but the next two days look to be nasty with gale force winds from the south and south-west and more heavy rain.
With weather like that it is not surprising that bird sightings have been few. The only note for yesterday was a count of 46 Brent Geese on the tideline just south of Blackrock as I drove home in the afternoon. Today Clive McK. reports 8 Long-tailed Ducks close to the Gaelic College near Bowmore in Loch Indaal.
