Well today broke with a hard frost and a bit of defrosting required abut this gave way to another lovely day although a bit on the cold side!
The Stags are beginning to settle down with the majority of the work done after a long hard Rut!
They really do look mean but also extremely lean rutting takes it out of them, sex is the only thing on their minds and sleeping and eating take second place during October.
Curlew, redshank, greenshank, wigeon, teal, mallard, red-breasted
merganser, great northern diver, little grebe, greylag, grey heron. all species making an appearance of late.
Adult White tailed overhead this afternoon with a lone Adult Golden eagle in Glen More.
This afternoon i went in search of Waxwings a few flocks have been sighted on the island. Not in luck today but never give up trying the best sightings come when you least expect it in the world of wildlife watching.
Brilliant sighting this morning after observing a large number of gulls on the water in Loch Scridain the scope came out and there amongst the action were x2 Minke whales. They put on a magnificant display for around an hour. Always check out large numbers of Gulls they are there for a reason.
Well you never know what might turn up next so stay posted.
Mike & John.
