Saturday 10th September

 A quite hot, calm, sunny and dry day.

Jim Dickson managed a bit of birding before heading for home on the afternoon ferry. A wander at Foreland produced a couple of Bullfinches, plus Goldcrests, Treecreeper, Blue, Great & Coal Tits. Nearby at Sunderland was a flock of 220 Linnets. Loch Gorm held 56 Mallard and down at the floods by the Parking area at Machair Bay he found a Spotted Redshank, 2 Ruff and 2 Black-tailed Godwits (see photo below). Finishing up with a look at Loch Skerrols he noted a single  Moorhen and Tufted Duck.. Many thanks Jim for all your observations this past week - Haste Ye Back..............


Elsewhere, David Livingstone was out on the golf course at the Machrie and took this photo of a Hen Harrier passing by.
