• 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.

Some sightings today and much as previously this winter: 13 Snow Buntings at Ness; the Snow Goose and Crane remain on Berneray; while on South Uist a sole Puffin flew S off Rubha Ardvule, a Brambling is still at South Glendale and 25 Snow Buntings were on the Bornish machair.

5 Iceland gulls (4 juvs and an adult) were at Ardveenish this afternoon. The 2nd winter kumlien's gull was still at Brevig.
