Autumnal sights aplenty today with multiple reports of fieldfare streaming in across the island.
At Portnahaven Ian Ford saw well over 1000 of the birds in a mixed flock also containing a hundred or so redwing, before upping his count of each species on his drive north up the Rhinns, to approximately 3000 fieldfare and 300 redwing. He also reports two immature WTEs passing overhead causing havoc amongst the flock.
Fieldfare also seem to be faring well over on the Oa, with David Dinsley reporting hundreds passing through during the morning.
At Gruinart, the story was much the same, with thousands of both fieldfare and redwing seen throughout the day.
