@Tireebirder @martgilli @RareBirdAlertUK There was certainly mention of it although if you could promise me a first for the Western Pal next time I would be most grateful.

@SteelySeabirder @martgilli @RareBirdAlertUK Thanks matey. Funny enough I set off for Ardivachar after a storm in 2014 hoping to find a Ross's Gull there when I was distracted by an Ivory Gull flying past the car in the opposite direction! It only took 11 years to realise the dream - buzzing!!

After accidentally scaring a young otter from a stream at Otternish, North Uist this morning it was a bit of a surprise when it turned up with its mum shortly after; apparently to sort us out!
