Tuesday 4th July

 Drier, warmer and sunny today.

Bird news sent in today is all about "babies"! Annie Rudd reports Fulmar chicks from The Oa. Mary Redman saw a second brood of Lapwing chicks at Claddach and Margaret Brooke messaged about young, fledged Pied Wagtails up at Kilchoman. This evening following a very interesting talk at the Natural History Trust HQ in Port Charlotte (all about Farming for Wildlife - "High Nature Value Farming"), Ed Burrell was mentioning well-grown Curlew chicks on the land he and Samira farm at Cornabus.

Val Peacock was up at Finlaggan this afternoon and found a pair of Little Grebes and later, at Bunnahabhain several Common Sandpipers.
