An impression from the weekly RSPB walk on the Oa in the south of Islay. Here we were heading out to the American Monument, from where we watched the nesting site of a Peregrine Falcon on the cliffs below. A great experience for the whole family (the lady with the red backpack is my late mother, my father and sister must have been behind me).
A view west along the cliffs of the Oa from near Beinn Mhor. Sgeirean Buidhe with Dun Athad in the centre, behind it the Mull of Oa with the American Monument on top. In the far distance on the right you can also make out the Rhinns of Islay.
A slightly different view of the American Monument on the Oa, looking up the cliffs with the monument on top.
