A Tale of Two Eagles

 After some torrential downpours, we got a break in the weather - a good job as Craignish Point is fairly exposed...

Views along the coast. 


Looking back towards the carpark - the path skirts the coast and then goes inland a little to the ridge that leads to the point.

Dramatic light - towards Crinan.

And then a flypast by a Golden Eagle...



Then it headed off - you can spot it in the clouds towards the righthand top corner.

Looking towards Jura and the Gulf of Corryveckan, between Jura and Scarba. Apparently it's the third largest whirlpool in the world! 

From the end of Craignish Point. Then we turned round and....

A White-tailed Eagle gave us a flypast - note the huge yellow beak.

And white on the tail.


After that - we retraced our tracks. A good walk, only about a mile to the point, with a clear path - damp underfoot in places.
