An October afternoon classic Islay view, the Paps of Jura in the distance behind the lower hills of Islay along Loch Indaal. A variety of birds visible on and above the loch, part of the feeding frenzy I had watched from Bruichladdich.

A variety of gulls feeding on Loch Indaal just off Bruichladdich, Bowmore visible in the distance on the other side of the loch.
