Monday 15th July


 

Only one sighting from Sunday and that was Mary's very early Marsh Fritillary webs. 

In the early hours of this morning Gary spotted a hunting barn owl at Bruichladdich. David had a Little Egret - a rare visitor to the Oa - roosting near the house which seemed to hang around all day, joined by a couple of Greenshank this afternoon. Mary was back this afternoon with a larger sighting - a White-Tailed Eagle over Claddach.
