A view from the bird hide at Gruinart on a November late afternoon. Some Geese (I believe Barnacle Geese) arriving for the roost against the last light of the gloaming in the sky.

Red-Throated Divers off Port Charlotte, Isle of Islay
Image
Spotted from the beach in Port Charlotte, two birds on the water off some rocks at the end of the beach. I’m led to believe they are Red-Throated Divers in their winter plumage, so that’s what I’m calling them.
Birds at the Paps of Jura (seen from Islay)
Image
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).
