Sunday 20th March

The weather continues bright and sunny with a stiff southerly breeze. James How was at Coull Point and found 3 Wheatears. Val Peacock was walking The Oa Reserve and had a Goldcrest that looked like it had just been blown in, plus Twite still at the feeders in the Car Park. Back at Loch Indaal she found a Little Egret. Gary Turnbull was out birding up at Finlaggan where he noted a Crossbill flying over, 5 Buzzards in the air together and a pair of Hen Harriers over the adjacent moorland. On the loch with the Tufties was a Goldeneye.

Billy Stitchell had been wandering Islay's woodlands at Lily Loch and noted more Chiffchaffs - here are a couple of his photos.



Steve Murray sent us this photo of a couple of young White-tailed Eagles seen on Loch Indaal a couple of days back.
