Further bright sunny weather, but a little more breezy from the east making today's circumnavigation of Islay for a seabird census a bit bumpier than wanted. We are still adding up the totals, so will post the details tomorrow. On the way round we did see a large pod of dolphins chasing the boat plus a pair of Great Skuas on Nave Island, several Manxies and Puffins offshore and 6 Canada Geese with goslings on the beach at Proaig.
Jeff Duncan is visiting again and sent in a report for yesterday of 2 male Whinchats at Claddach with 3 Tunstone and a Rock Pipit at Currie Sands. Today he had a male Hen Harrier at Gruinart. Graeme Glass was also at Gruinart watching Snipe, then found a Little Tern up at Ardnave Point.
