This fabulous warm and sunny weather is almost becoming boring - a rain shower and a bit of cloud and a breeze might make a novel change!
Not much bird news I'm afraid. I heard through the grapevine that Arctic Terns might be nesting (or trying to) on Blackrock this year and had a quick look. There were indeed a few hanging about and settled - mainly on the side you can't see properly from the usual viewpoint. There is a tiny bit of "beach" and a patch of plant life, so presumably it is possible. At least it is safe from the disturbance that most of the beaches get.
Shona Isla wrote in to say that there were 4 dolphins between Carraig Fhada and the pier at Port Ellen this evening.
