Good friend Charles, looked in earlier this evening before heading South tomorrow after his holidays, one day last week he saw an Osprey carrying a fish over Loch Indaal...Bet he was envious as he loves fishing when he is here!!! Yesterday, Natalie had done a count on Loch Indaal, her tally was as follows, 3 Shag, 11 Heron, 11 Eider, 22 Greylag, 263 Oystercatcher, 87 Ringed Plover, 20 Sanderling, 235 Dunlin, 55 Barwits, 326 Curlew, 87 Redshank, 142 BH Gulls, 116 Common Gull, 417 Herring Gull, 8 GBB Gull, 1 Osprey, 2 Hen Harrier all on Loch Gruinart.
