Dotterel

Another short trip to the Highlands looking for dotterel came up trumps. It was a long climb to the mountain summit though and with all my gear I certainly earned my haggis and chips in the evening! I then went on to a small uninhabited island called Eilean Nan-Ron off the North coast near Tongue where I was able to photograph storm petrels and spend some time watching the breeding great skuas.
