Louise Muir notes that an Osprey was seen daily from 9th – 11th August on Jura flying over the small isles as it came and went from Jura to the mainland.
Bird records sent in today include:
- A Great Skua circling over Risabus and Kinnabus from David Dinsley
- Flocks of Meadow Pipits and Goldfinches in fields at Mulreesh and Balulive from Gary Turnbull – indication of autumn migration building up
- Bullfinch, Peregrine and Sparrowhawk at Gruinart from James How
- White-tailed Eagle down at Gleann on the south of the Rhinns from Mary Redman – the first WTE down that way for a while I think?
- Another White-tailed Eagle seen by visitors Stu & Ange (sorry - don't know your surname) flying with a fish in its talons over the hills behind Finlaggan and dropping into the forestry there. They provide a photo below - not bad considering it was over a mile away!
- · More raptor action from David Dinsley with 2 Peregrines,
a Hen Harrier and Sparrowhawk hunting the build-up of small passerines around
Kinnabus this afternoon.
