Colin had a 1W Iceland gull at Portnahaven in the late afternoon. The 3 lesser scaup and his possible tufted hybrid are still at Loch Skerrols...
...and it was another busy day for white-tailed eagles. Colin watched this bird chase and kill a barnie at Craigens...
...and then had a 1st year bird near Ballimony. There was one adult over Eresaid in the morning and 2 sub-adults at Gartbreck in the afternoon, and Sean and Steve got this great shot of 3 together at Saligo...
...plus a ringtail harrier flushing a jack snipe at Kilchoman cemetery. Sean and Steve seem to be enjoying their Islay visit, and have also had 60 twite in stubbles near Gartbreck (Tues 8th). I'll take a leaf out of Ian's book and save the rest of their sightings for later, as I don't think we'll get many today!
Huge thanks to Colin, Steve and Sean for their sightings and pictures.
