Sea eagles from Mull

Well I've just got back from a fantastic few days away in Mull with the Mrs and time for a little update, this one has been on my list for a long time and after a mate of mine had been earlier on in the year and came back with some great shots it had to be done.
Strange how you have to go too Scotland to get some decent weather, even stranger was that i didn't hear a Scottish accent the whole time i was there.
Big thanks goes to Martin of  Mull Charters for providing a fantastic service with a few laughs on the way and we stayed at his great B&B (FASCADAIL) that i'd recommend it to anyone.

I new that bobbing around in a boat and being lucky enough to get some shots wasn't going to be easy, add on the fact that i had a lens on that i only managed to get by luck 3 days beforehand made it a bit of a challenge as well.
That was going to be my excuse if it all when't wrong and i didn't get any shots so instead of getting giddy and just running off hundreds of shots hopping to get lucky i tried for quality instead of quantity.

Last one shows just how big these beauties are and that's a fair size mackerel it's got for a snack.


So that's me and the fantastic White Tailed Sea Eagles of Mull and it looks like this one will be going straight back onto next years list.
