Tràigh Lingeigh

After some overnight showers it was a bright day so we decided to go up the Marilyns of Lì Tuath and Lì a Deas near Loch Maddy. Despite the highest point being 283 metres and the walk a mere 13 kilometres the boggy and then rocky terrain made for a longer day than you might expect. The views were spectacular, especially from Lì a Deas despite the strong wind. We were very fortunate to see a Golden Eagle being mobbed by a pair of Peregrines near the top, but too far away to blip the action. We then went towards Berneray to find a place to stay and ended up looking at the end of the road looking over Tràigh Lingeigh where the blip was taken towards the hills of Harris where we go tomorrow. The extra is a couple of panoramas from the Marilyns of Lì Tuath and Lì a Deas looking north to Harris and west over the moorland of North Uist.

Yesterday’s blip.
