Walked around Ardmore Point under blue skies, but in a bitterly cold Westerly wind (see picture below). Most notable birds were small flotillas of Eider (the males calling "Woo-Ooo-oo"), a few pairs of Red breasted Merganser and the ubiquitous (and noisy) Oystercatchers. Odd Red throated Divers loafing and preening well offshore. Also, a possible Slavonian Grebe (pure white cheeks flashing in the distance). Best sighting of the morning? My first Snowdrops of the year, under Bramble bushes next to the path (see below).
