An other blowy day here today, though dry for the most part. Still very mild too so a lot of late grass yet - the mower can be stashed away just yet.
Margaret enjoyed watching a stoat jumping around the garden at Kilchoman, but was disappointed it didn't put the same energy into catching the rabbits there! We only get stoats on Islay, no weasels so there is no confusion. Although if you do want an easy way to tell them apart, weasels are weasel-y recognised and stoats are stoat-ily different. (Sorry).
George had a tawny owl last night just north of Erasaid on the Uskenui-Gruinart road. First he had a good sighting of it flying from open fields into the shelter-belt of trees, then later he heard it calling from the same area.
David reported a merlin at Kinnabus on The Oa.
