A rainy day, but some wonderful light as Teresa has kindly shared. A stunning sun set over Loch Gruinart. Later afternoon looking towards Killinallan, an equally stunning rainbow over glass calm waters.
Dan Brown had cackling goose on the north of the Gruinart Flats, and a pair of adult WTE with a kill on the southern side. To the western side, an imm WTE. Later an adult golden eagle west of Laggan Bridge. On Loch Gorm, 5 drake pochard and 237 tufted ducks, with 4 ringtail hen harrier and 3 merlin hunting round the edges. 3 greenshank and 4 black tailed godwits on the Gruinart Floods plus large numbers of more common waders.
James How and Neil McMahon were separately checking over Loch Indaal this morning, collectively they had 14 Slavonian grebe, 3 black throated divers, a raft of common scoters, 10 long tailed duck (some calling), 10 great northern diver, 4 red-throated divers.
The American wigeon was seen at Loch Skerrols again, though no further sign of the ring necked ducks. It is a big loch though... Happy Halloween.
