At least 30 barnacle geese were grazing on fields in Achiltibuie this afternoon.
The tussocky grass probably gave them some shelter from the cold wind.
My first ringed plovers of the year were on the beach at Achnahaird. I can't get to like rings on birds, no matter how much I tell myself it's all in a good cause.
A fishing boat close in at Badentarbat and a gathering of gulls were probably exploiting a shoal of fish; and watching them, we had the usual fleeting views of several porpoises.
