We headed out in drizzly conditions but the weather was to clear as the day progressed. A few Snipe made their presence known as we stopped to look for Mountain Hare. We found four hares sheltering in the rocks but as they had a clear view of us there was no chance of getting close. As you can see the winter coat works well against the white sand.
As promised the weather cleared - awesome!
A couple of Otters came for a closer look and then headed off.
Just in case you get an itchy trigger finger there is always a Grey Heron around to help you out - stunning!
A Golden Eagle drifted off over a ridge while a WT eagle was much more obliging.
One of these next two birds is a juvenile White-tailed Eagle and the other is an adult Golden Eagle...
...which is which?







Easy peasey. Top one is adult Goldie, bottom one is juv White Tail
