There was a meeting a couple of weeks in Gairloch after crofters claimed that sea eagles had taken over 200 lambs in a season. This is a debate that has gone on for a number of years after crofters in Mull made the same claims - they now work RSPB over there in monitoring the birds. I have to say I find the numbers rather far fetched but it would be interesting to see what was said at the public meeting.

I haven't seen them both for over a week, and I haven't seen either of them this week. Maybe this wonderful Spring weather is not agreeing with them! Are the two Snowy Owls still around?
