Last day on Scotland trip. Dolphins, Raven,Manx shearwater.at Ardamurcham.

Ardamurcham today the most westernly point of the British isles. We are to early for the Corran ferry, so we take the scenic route around Loch Linnhe ,it puts a few miles on the trip but well worth it for the views.
A Woodcock is flushed from the side of the road to give us all a tick & we have to slow down to let some Red deer bound across the road in front of us, many more seen on the way.always great to see them at this time of year with the antlers.
On the way Brian spots an Eagle sitting right at the top of a very high ridge, with the car screeching to a halt it's out of the car just in time to see it fly right over our heads to give us the best view of a White-tailed eagle we have ever had.
Next up the first Wheatear of the year is seen, followed by a few more so well worth going the long way round.
The car needed some diesel so we head to a very small village where the man in the  post office has to find time to come across the road to serve us, we got lucky & only had to wait a short time, a family behind us looked like they had a lot longer to wait.
A quick look down by the Kilchoan ferry terminal where we see lots of Twite & Great-northern divers & a real bonus when many Bottle nose Dolphin swim & play jumping  out of the water not to far away from us. Down to the Lighthouse & within minutes we have another tick when 4 Manx shearwarter pass by.
Going back we stop off to watch at least 4 Raven flying round over our heads for a good long time.
So it's off to the airport for the flight home, I have to say it's been a really good trip with over 20 year ticks & 2 lifers with over 90 species all together. To round it all off on the way to the airport we see 2 Golden eagles & they give us a nice long view.
