It's the winter solstice today - summer and endlessly sunny days here we come! I've no Islay in December pictures handy, so here's Jura in June. Plenty of people out and about sending us sightings today. Dave Wood finally found his binoculars down the back of the couch and saw 200 fieldfare at Risabus, a brambling at Kinnabus and 7 long-tailed ducks and 6 great northern divers at Kintra. Clive is back over on Islay and had 2 little egrets and 1000 or so golden plover at Bun-an-uillt (Loch Gruinart). Ian's Christmas holiday sightings continued - a male sprawk near Duich, 9 pale-bellied brents at the head of Loch Indaal, the obligatory white-tailed eagle sighting (Saligo) and 21 golden plover at Ballinaby. Thanks to everyone above - here's to longer days and better times.
