Cracking Day...

...yesterday. We headed out on the Rhinns starting in the north with a birder from Nottingham. We immediately saw a Golden Eagle and Buzzard, Corvids and Finches and Greylags on Gorm. On to Machir Bay where there were plenty of Choughs and Gullls too. A good flock of Linnets drinking in the burn was good too. Then we headed south for a bit of seawatching - Frenchman's Rocks gave us lots of Gannets, Shearwaters, Waders passing and a fine flock of Twite and another Eagle. On the eround we found 31 Marsh Fritillary nests. On our return we had a couple of White wagtails and a superb male Hen Harrier. What a day!
