A Curlew Sandpiper was in the tern/colony at Aird an Runair, North Uist this morning. In very 'dull' plumage (similar to the two that were present at Baleshare in May).

A Quail was calling near the N shore of Loch nam Feithean, North Uist later.

As well as the surprise reappearance of the Purple Heron, there were a minimum of 9 Spotted Flycatchers on Barra today. The male Whinchat was still at Brevig this morning.
