Wildlife Adventure - 30th September 2013

Lovely crisp sunshine as we headed out of Tobermory this morning with the first encounter being a small hurry of Kittiwakes with diving Gannets above. We saw a couple of Atlantic Grey Seals hauled out on the shoreline before visiting our local Harbour Seal colony with a group of Red Deer showing in the woodland behind consisting of 5 hinds and a stag. Other species seen were Guillemots, Shags and a Common Buzzard. A great plankton sample under the microscope finished off the trip.
