Yesterday George Jackson was on the ferry (good timing as they were all cancelled today and probably will be for a few days hence). He provides the unseasonal record of a single adult Gannet seen sitting on the water halfway through the crossing.
It is not surprising that there are few bird sightings today as Storm Malik hit hard overnight with gale force westerly winds, though comparatively little rain. It has been very windy all day and the forecast is for another storm called “Corrie” to arrive tomorrow and Monday with further gale and storm force winds.
Despite the forbidding weather Billy Stitchell provided this photo of a fine pair of Goldeneye on Lossit Loch and Mary Redman had a Barn Owl braving the elements at or Wemyss this evening.
