Our chick is growing up |
After this weekend I returned to the hide to find the chick had grown another two inches and the nest had a new dead sea bird in it . The grey fluffy chick from last week was now darker in colour and looking more like a bird.
The activity on Monday afternoon after the public had gone home was interesting as both parent birds were calling out and in the background I could hear the mew of the buzzard that was flying close to the nest. At one stage it reminded me of being a young girl at London zoo, the noise was immense.
Yellow flag on Mull |
The island has blossomed into the most wonderful colour as bluebells, yellow flag and iris’ are all out in bloom.
Its an amazing burst of colour that has happened in the last week. I spotted a yellow flag over looking Inch Kenneth as pictured.

We had some very good news that John Clare the RSPB ranger and myself, passed our recent 'mystery shopper' examination who had visited during May bank holiday week.
Some questions and comments from the visit below -Q Did a member of staff go out of their way to enhance the visit for you or another visitor ?
A "Both Cheryl and John were superb. They had passion for the site and were able to provide information either in answer to questions or as part of the tour. Both were outstanding in dealing with children."
We got 100 percent for staff service, skills and image.
Q One thing that could have improved this visit ?
A "Genuinely there was nothing that could have improved my visit."
So with that recommendation please come along and visit us!
