Spotted in the Sound of Islay from a passing ferry, the Black Rocks buoy near the southern end. Looking quite dirty compared to another time I photographed it, mainly because some Shags seem to have taken up residence on it.
You might have to zoom in or look closer, but there is a Shag stretching/drying it wings on the dark rocks on the shore of Loch Indaal. Across the loch the Paps of Jura are towering over the scene.
A view of the MV Loch Ranza leaving Gigha for the mainland. Seen from Port na Gallochoille on a June early evening. Notice the buoy and the cormorants/shag (not sure what they are) on the rocks, one drying its wings.
