Hi, we’re planning a leisure stay in Scotland’s isles of Islay, Jura, and Mull in October. Any birding suggestions?

Also considering Isle of Man?

It’s so long since I’ve been (and only to Mull of those you mention) that I had to try a search to remind myself. Unfortunately, I still can’t remember where was particularly fruitful, but I think it’s fair to say Mull in general is a good hunting ground. I imagine your own “googling” found you this little taster? : http://www.mullbirds.com/

October could be damp, but at least you will miss mosquito season! Have fun.

Tell other birders about your favorite places, your favorite field guides, your favorite bird-related books, etc.
