Sun later with Golden Eagle

It started damp, and wet and windy and sort of cold but we had the landy to bird from and we found all three divers; Gt Northern, Red and Black Throated, Purple Sandpipers, Turnstones and Mergansers too. We then headed south from Bruichladdich along the west coast. Lunch was spent eagle waiting..... we were rewarded having watched Barnacles, Whitefronts and lapwing. the the eagle rose up into the, becoming blue, sky. fabulous. We finished with Chough and more divers. and now, as I write the sun shines in an evening sky.
