Well - if anyone of you were driving home from work this evening listening to Drivetime with Simon Mayo on Radio 2, you will have heard Dave talking about eagles! Yesterday's guest on the show was Glenn Frey from the band The Eagles (our favourite group of course!) - so this evening Simon wanted to go one step further and talk about the feathered variety.  If you missed it, here is a link to it - if you fast forward to 19.30 you can pick it up at the start.  Radio 2 - Simon Mayo Drivetime

 

As many of you will recall, the BBC Springwatch team came to Mull and spent a wonderful few days filming basking sharks, goats and white tailed eagles.  If you missed it, here is a link to the clip where you can get a sneak preview of the viewing area of Mull Eagle Watch at Glen Seilisdeir. 

 

 

Dave was also invited to write a guest blog for the Springwatch website - here is the link BBC Nature - Mull Sea Eagles - The Young Generation

 

Dont forget to book your trip to Mull Eagle Watch - the chicks are 8 weeks old today and are doing really well. Trips are proving very popular so make sure you book ahead.  Please call the Visitor Information Centre in Craignure on 01680 812556.

  • I have just read the three latest blogs plus Dave's  "The Young Generation", and must confess to a tear or two in the eye.  Having experienced watching these beautiful birds over the last few years on many occasions, I can understand, I think, how attached he and Debby are to them.  My tears are probably because I know that these blogs are the only way I will see them in future, having taken the decision that Mull is now just a step too far for us to travel at our age.  Many thanks to all  at Mull eagle hide and all over the island, including the wildlife, for some wonderful holidays with such  lasting memories.  We may not be with you in body, but we will be in spirit.

    Regards to all like-minded people who enjoy and care for our wildlife.
