A view from the RSPB reserve at Loch Gruinart. In the low evening sun a Heron had just lifted off and was flying low across the floods outside the birdwatching hide.

Barnacle Geese over Killinallan Point, Isle of Islay

A November view on Islay, looking over to Killinallan Point from the track down to Kilnave Chapel. The Barnacle Geese were quite easily spooked that day and flew up frequently. Here the can be seen passing over the dunes at Killinallan Point with Mala Bholsa in the background.

A nice sunny view from the north of Islay, from Killinallan Point at the entrance to Loch Gruinart. A very nice walk along the beach from Killinallan Gate to Gortantaoid Point passes by here. Best time to walk here is a low tide, at high large parts of the beach are submerged and make the walk much longer if not impossible.
