Tues 27th Jan

Guess what was seen today, well how's about the saga of the returning Fulmars...... recently there has only been up to 7 seen, but today there were 14. Does that mean it is going to be more windy than normal in a few days time or what, we will just have to wait and see! We had a hunting Barn Owl out the other night as we returned home.
Meanwhile James had a White Wagtail round the other side of the Loch, and on Saturday saw a large flock of Golden Plover at Coull in a rape stubble field which made actual counting a bit difficult, but possibly the same flock that Malcolm had seen earlier on in the week while out Goose counting.
