A couple of years ago we had stayed on Skye on our way to the Outer Hebrides and thought that it would be fun to explore Skye and its near neighbour the island of Mull.
The trip was a great success with magnificent landscapes and (in the end) plenty of wildlife to see and photograph.
Here I have displayed some of the wildlife we saw but I have made a blog of our trip (see index) where (for our benefit mainly) there is a brief description of our itinerary and some photographs of some of the magnificent scenery and the wildlife.
The highlights were the white-tailed eagles (sea eagles), the divers (such as great northern divers, red-throated divers, red breasted-merganser, eider duck), oystercatchers, hooded crows, siskins, wheatears and a twite.
I have tried to provide links to the craft centres and different venues we visited but need to work more on this. Amendments and additions will come soon.

Wonderful photos .. A great collection of bird sightings. The eagle is magnificent but I love the photo of the dipper in flight and the Siskin…
