Quite overcast and grey in the morning with a fresh northerly wind, very appropriate for the first winter day tour since March!

Red throated diver and Harbour seals were a nice start before a little egret, buzzards and kestrels. A few attempts for the other raptor species to no avail before five species together at our lunch stop. Two Hen Harriers and both flavours of eagles on the distant skylines.
At our toilet stop we had a spectacular otter encounter as we all got in a responsible position and watched the female land her catch before working her way down the coast.

Heading to western areas on the low tide we had spectacular interaction between two adult white eagle and a family of three otters. The Eagles were looking for that attempt of kleptoparasitism but could not spot an opportunity as the otters foraged just offshore.
