Scotland - Kyle of Durness, Birds and Lambs

The Kyle of Durness in the far NW of Scotland on the Monday Bank Holiday at the beginning of June.

Looking South with one of the shoulders of Foinaven in the distance

Red Breasted Mergansers making a hasty get away when I got too close

Eider drakes preening.  Their call reminds me of Frankie Howerd's "ah-ooo".  You have to hear it to believe it.

Dunlin in breeding plumage on the rocky high tide mark waiting for the tide to go out

Shy and curious Lambs
