Mull - August or September?

I'm planning a birding trip to Mull towards the end of summer - any time from beginning of August to mid September.

Any advice as to the best month? Thanks.

Hi Clarity. I can't say which is best but I went to Mull last August; had a fantastic birding time. Here is my report:

We've been in September and had a productive week - my report is in the ether somewhere on here.

Thanks for those replies. And, Joanne, your trip report sounds fantastic. Useful comments, too, about places to eat, and midgie nets. :)
