TIREE: A TURTLE DOVE (found by Nick Wall) moved from Balephuil beach car park to the shore edge of Loch a’ Phuill (near the pumping station) by midday but very mobile (per John Bowler). A BUFF-BREASTED SANDPIPER was found at Ruaig around 7.30pm – a just reward for Keith Gillon’s searches on Tiree over the last week.
ISLAY: Clive McKay had an amazing encounter with a flock of 13 GREAT WHITE EGRETS as they flew NW between Ardnave Point and Nave Island – likely a Scottish record number seen together!
