Whalewatch Explorer - 21st September 2013

After a week spent in more sheltered waters we headed out to one of our favourite spots and sure enough a MINKE WHALE surfaced right off our bow! We listened to its powerful blow and watched it feed along a strong tide line - magic! We also saw harbour porpoise, 3 white-tailed eagles, gannets, Manx shearwaters, guillemots, razorbills, storm petrels, Arctic skua and had a very inquisitive bonxie follow Sula Beag. We also visited the Cairns of Coll to watch the common & grey seals
