• 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.

Always Birding
Felt like spring was in the air with c90 Whooper Swans in 3 groups over Askernish and 20+ Redwing also on the move. Another 56 Whoopers were at Frobost and a very noticable increase of Sanderling (c300) on the beach and Golden Plover and Skylark in the machair. Several new Chaffinch and Goldcrest were also ringed in the garden.
