I’m not sure if this is the place as the one in the Wild goats at Machir Bay picture, but even if it isn’t it’s very close to it. A herd of wild goats on a small hillock at the southern end of Kilchoman beach, Machir Bay visible behind it with Eilean an Tannais-Sgeir just visible in the distance on the right.

An April evening on the west coast of Islay. The sun is reflecting on the water of Machir Bay and the North Channel, stretching out to the Atlantic. The view is from the Kilchoman dunes, looking towards Coull Point and Eilean an Tannais-sgeir to the left of it.
