A BIT OF SCOTTISH BIRDING

Whilst visiting friends in Oban this week I called in at Inchinnan,Clyde on the way up and managed to connect with a Stone curlew that had been found,on arrival the weather conditions were appauling but the bird showed well on arrival.


This was the first record for Clyde since 1966

Other birds of note during the week were Golden eagle,White tailed eagle,2 Ospreys and a pair of Red throated divers on there breeding ground.


On the way home I called in at Loch turret reservoir where I got cracking views of a Ring billed gull.
