Birds at the Paps of Jura (seen from Islay)

Seen from the Bunnahabhain road, I think somewhere near Persabus: A good number of birds swirling around in the air with the Paps of Jura behind them. Unfortunately I didn’t check at the time and can’t properly make out from the picture what they are (I think some are Hooded Crows).
