Firstly, a big "Thank You" to Linden for doing the blog in my absence.
The weather yesterday and today was a mix of light winds with sunny spells and showers - more sunshine today than yesterday.
Yeterday's news was of an Osprey seen up at Killinallan and a good list from Clive McKay: a Barn Owl last night at Uiskentuie, a female Marsh Harrier in heavy moult at Gruinart where, on the evening high tide he counted 386 Bar-tailed Godwits, 7 Black-tailed Godwits, 88 Curlew and 55 Oystercatchers and 5 Sandwich Terns flying high over Gruinart towards Loch Indaal.
Today, Gary T. saw 2 Ospreys around Finlaggan along with a Short-eared Owl and a variety of other "stuff" - Crossbills, Siskins, Redpolls, Sedge Warbler, Moorhen, 7 Tufted Ducks - and an Otter! Later, he counted 21 Black Guillemots at Caol Ila.
Jamie Johnson saw the female Marsh Harrier again today at Gruinart, while David D. had a pair of White-tailed Eagles on The Oa.
