Monday 24th May

Another mixed day with the weather, net result was that I did not cut the grass today, and another poor pointer was the temperature on Matt Jackson's weather gauge dropped to 2 degrees centigrade last night.... 

Martin Armstrong today was telling me of seeing an Osprey the other day being mobbed by a Hen Harrier....

Chris Brock who is sailing around Islay islay at present with the Majestic Line sent me through the following birds seen today...Today’s birds from my trip, Craighouse to Port Ellen. Sadly no WTE!
