Wednesday 2nd February

Catherine had seen a Tree Sparrow the other day down on the RSPB reserve on the Oa. Great to hear that some are still here!
Mark who managed the INHT last summer is a "vol" with RSPB at present, and Mark had a flock of 300 Twite, a Lapland Bunting, a Merlin and a Hen Harrier over at Killinallan, round at Saligo he had seen another Merlin.
I forgot (not again) to mention the other day that the Fulmars were back in, not only here but we also saw them round at Kilchiaran too. Net result, the strong winds that are whistling around outside, the wind has certainly picked up from earlier this evening. Wonder if they saw any Fulmars out in Queensland...
