Spent most of the day driving to and from Oban. The good weather, coupled with the fact that many birds were in full song, meant that I clocked up a trip list of 28 species without even trying (Mute Swan, Canada Goose, Greylag Goose, Eider, Mallard, Cormorant, Grey Heron, Common Gull, Lesser Black-backed Gull, Great Black-backed Gull, Herring Gull, Oystercatcher, Ringed Plover, Redshank, Pheasant, Collared Dove, Pied Wagtail, Song Thrush, Blackbird, Robin, Dunnock, Wren, Greenfinch, Chaffinch, Starling, House Sparrow, Carrion Crow, Hooded Crow). Mammal highlights were two Rabbits at Tarbet and a Weasel across the road at Strone Hill. The only plant highlight was a patch of Coltsfoot near Stronmilchan (above).
