Friday 12th July

One problem which I had forgotten about was the rainfall figure for June, and as I was not here around at the 1st of the month to read and empty our rainguage out, I did it today. So the rain that was in the said guage was really for June and also July up to this morning... the tally at that time was exactly 5 inches. Not a lot really compared to Nicholas Watts from Vine House Farm in Lincs ... his tally came to 5.75 inches for June alone, not often that we are drier than Nicholas!!!

I presume that most of the birders on Islay, are on holiday at present as nothing through from anyone so far tonight. Plus the weather with a low swirling mist at times is not the best for birding, or for our service planes to land here on Islay!
