Tues 12 Jan

Today, George had 14 Pale bellied Brent Geese on Loch Indaal, just below his house, up at his pools there were 9 Greenland Whitefronts and also a Jack Snipe. Over at Gartmain and George had 20 Pintail, and on the way to Sanaigmore he had a total of 20 Woodcock, just past Grulinbeg. Earlier on there had been 5 Fieldfare at Rock Mountain, and on the road itself a Buzzard was tucking into a dead Hare, and quite unfazed by the presence of 2 Ravens!
