Friday 25th March

Another superb day's weather – sunny, fairly calm, quite warm and not a bit like a "normal" March. Summer birds continue to appear quite early. Gary Turnbull had our first Osprey of the year high over Ballygrant heading towards Jura and Ed Burrell was seeing Willow Warbler and Chiffchaff on The Oa. The breeding season appears to be in full swing with Callum McGrgeor reporting a pair of sky-dancing Hen Harriers near Loch Tallant and Ed Burrell reporting Lapwings on eggs on The Oa. Ed also witnessed a White-tailed Eagle in a long aerial pursuit of a goose over his way, with 3 eagles ending up in the chase.
