The reporting of Lady back nesting for the 20 oddth year meant the place was mobbed. Despite that some good stuff about including a couple of male brambling, red squirrel and the supporting cast of finches and tits.
We managed to catch a change over at the osprey nest with the male leaving as the female..."lady" took over...worth being there for that alone.
Many grebes on loch...apparently 8 pairs and a snap attached of a single

Signing off for the night we head to Beinn Inn for a great meal, concluded with a drambuie...before heading back to hotel we go to Balvaird Castle...80+ fieldfare flying low over the rapeseed a welcome addition...pretty late in the year methinks. In the area a few linnet, kestrel and a very obliging yellowhammer!

A pair of kestrel appear to like the area so possibly nesting here and brings to mind lesser kestrels hanging out in monasteries in Portugal!
