With a bit of rain forecast for tomorrow this may be the last of the
really pleasant dry sunny spell that hasn’t produced any great birds!
Lauren Stewart saw one of the last few “first arrivals” of summer migrants today with 4 Arctic Terns at Ardnave Point.
James How noted 2 Grasshopper Warblers, 2 Whinchats and 3 Cuckoos at Gruinart and 1 Sandwich Tern and 4 Common Sandpipers at Bruichladdich.
The best I could muster was a Little Egret at a small lochan WSW of Loch Gorm called Loch Clach a Bhuaile – a slightly different location for the species on Islay.
The resident Whooper Swan was on Gruinart floods along with the 14 Canada Geese and a flock of 17 Choughs cavorted around Shepherd’s cottage this afternoon.
