Wednesday 12th June

A rather early entry, just before 11am .. the reason is for some breaking news.. Bonnie  Wood, Dave's better half, had seen a WHITE-CROWNED SPARROW earlier on this morning down on the Oa. It is a first for Islay and Argyll, and fewer than 10 have been seen on the UK. More details later on.

Dave was in touch to me later on to say that the bird had not been seen again at that point. It had been seen by Bonnie around 8am out through her kitchen window, needless to say poor Dave was out carrying out some survey work and Bonnie was unable to raise him on his mobile phone as where he was, well no reception, hence no signal....
