A view of Bowmore on a hazy November afternoon on Islay. Some Barnacle Geese near the shore of Loch Indaal, may be they arrived early for that afternoon’s roost?

Barnacle Geese over snow capped Islay hills

An early winter scene from November 2017. Barnacle Geese are flying up near Loch Gorm (the view is from near Ballinaby) with the snow capped hills in the south east of Islay in the distance.

Sometimes you just have to be lucky and be in the right place at the right time. Combined with a bit of patience and persistence. I had stopped somewhere on the road between Kilchoman and Saligo to see if I could get a decent shot of some Barnacle Geese when in the constantly changing conditions of a November afternoon a rainbow appeared. At some point some Barnacle Geese were spooked and flew off, passing in front of the rainbow after a while.
