  • When here in the Outer Hebrides and looking at a bird, have you ever wondered how rare it is? The status of all species can vary enormously from island to island. How rare is Shoveler on Barra, has Stock Dove been seen on Harris, does Dotterel occur on Benbecula in the autumn, and how common is Blue Tit on North Uist? Well, fret no longer! The Status and Distribution of birds here on the Outer Hebrides has been completely updated and summarised for every species and each of the main islands and outliers. Available as an online resource at https://status.outerhebrides-birdreports.org/ or via our shop

Always Birding
A quiet time of year here at Askernish but waders beginning to increase with 42 Curlew, 7 Black-tailed Godwits and 200+ Lapwing on the mown fields next to the golf course. A Greenshank and an additional 14 Curlew were on Loch Hallan

Meadow Pipits are still passing through in numbers with 150+ trapped and ringed in the past few days.
