A fairly grey overcast day with drizzle and very light winds.
Late news from yesterday, 1st June came from Nick Bone who found one, possibly two male Ruffs in full breeding plumage displaying to at least 3 Reeves at the North Hide at RSPB Gruinart in the morning. He also heard a Corn Crake near the Woodland Trail gate at Gruinart and a Grasshopper Warbler calling from scrub on the east side of Loch Gorm.
Today, Graeme Glass reports a couple of Chough at Machir Bay, 12 Sanderling and 23 Oystercatchers on the beach there and a female Hen Harrier at Lyrabus. Nick Webb had another female Hen Harrier between Cnoc Fada and Loch Gorm and a Whinchat east of Loch Gorm.
I took a look at the hides at RSPB Gruinart in the afternoon but couldn't locate the Ruffs, though did see a pair of Wigeon and this fine White Wagtail.
David Livingstone photographed a fine male Hen Harrier on Duich Lotts on Sunday:
