Sometimes you just need to be lucky. While I missed out on the Red Breasted Goose during my Islay visit in November 2012 I did get to see an interesting sight from the lounge of the cottage I was staying in at Kilchoman. A Peregrine Falcon and a Raven were engaged in a mid air tussle above the Kilchoman Crags. The whole event lasted about 10-15 minutes and was quite amazing to watch.
While not always as spectacular as the Peregrine and the Raven fighting at Kilchoman you can often do some birdwatching from the cottage window or door. Here a number of Goldfinches have taken over a tree opposite the door.
