Thurs 31st July

As forecast, the weather has broken down, although the forecasters had been saying it was going to happen earlier on in the week. There is no pleasing some folks! As the weather has broken down, the visible birds have gone down too as most of us find something to do indoors, but James has seen an increase in numbers of Black tailed Godwits from 7, up to 18.
A visitor reported in to the Islay Natural History Trust, to say that they had seen a Basking Shark in the Sound of Islay at Caol Ila.

If it's any consolation, the weather isn't much better down here either.

Saw a Swan family yesterday morning, two adults with 3 almost grown young ones.
