6 Golden Eagles and 5 Sea Eagles were pretty good totals. One of the Goldens kept us entertained while we tried to spot the Otter that was fishing offshore in the challenging conditions. Although we spent ages looking, the wind and choppy waves finally defeated us and we left with not everyone managing to see her.
Further along the coast we were more fortunate with another Otter popping her head up to look at us (beautifully captured in this photo by Ginny), before continuing with her fishing.
Great views of a female Hen Harrier were out done by a later magnificent male as we headed back to Portree.
My personal highlight though was a Spotted Flycatcher hunting from the cemetery fence, refuelling before continuing it's migration.
