We spotted the golden eagle as we drove along the single-track road through Coigach.
At Badentarbat, there was a sad sight; a guillemot seemingly stranded on the stony beach at the edge of the waves. When I approached it didn't move and its eyes were shut; a seal loitering just offshore might well have had predatory intentions. On the drive out, a male stonechat was using a new fence as a hunting perch.
