• 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.

I took this photo at Aird an Rùnair on 20th March. I've not sent details off yet. Paul tells me he has only seen white darvics on birds on the Uists recently but there were birds with blue rings on Berneray a few years ago and he was told they were from the small Icelandic breeding population.
