    Cool photos Johnie and those birds hawking for insects would be Sand Martins. They arrive first in Spring ahead of the Swallows and House Martins with the Swift The Last to arrive:50:

    Me and Ruby Roo arrived back in the Highlands on Monday evening 4 and half hours late as the trains were .ucked up.
    Weather okay yesterday so we went up on Mt Cairngorm gaining a Fine Snow Bunting. I also got 2 Dippers on the Burn in Kingussie.
    Weather pretty crap today wind strong and frequent showers but me and Ruby managed a fun 3 hour plus walk in Kingussie Woods seeing 4 Red Squirrels and also a cool raven feeding on a dead Rabbit.
    So quiet at the moment, hope the weather gets better.

    I heard my first Chiff Chaff of the year this morning. Also got a great view of 2 Buzzards soaring in the sky. It's been a good morning

    I was driving home this morning, stopped at the traffic lights. Looked round to see a Lesser Black Back Gull on the pavement swallowing a dead mouse. I was so amazed to see this I didn't see the lights had changed to green. The driver behind me must have been watching this as he never pumped his horn for me to go. Nature at it's most cruel and best

    A few from Colgagh on Sunday morning, the loch was flat calm with hardly a breeze blowing and the birdlife was very active.

    I had the absolute joy again of watching the pair of Great crested Grebes displaying.
