Were these on Islay Ian? Beautiful birds, aren't they.

Many congratulations on all these lifers laddie - a great time you had, didn't you.

Re the Salmon Ladder. It's taken me a while to get the right info, but no, the viewine chambers are closed for "safety reasons". You can read more here: https://www.thecourier.co.uk/fp/news/local/perth-kinross/856788/sse-to-shut-fish-ladder-observation-chamber-for-safety-reasons/

Rather sad, hopefully they'll get the new facility up and running before too long.

Congrats of this lifer and a fine picture. I was hoping to see Choughs in Ireland, but missed them.
