Car wildlife spotting drive route #1 - Add Estuary and Moine Mhor.

This car route just 5 minutes drive from Lochgilphead never saw less than 10 species on each visit, even in wind and snow conditions. Flags show hotspots - visits were in between 4th March and 26th March.

Full list of Birds seen.






Percentage chances of seeing the birds (based on 12 visits)  :-

Herring Gull, Oystercatcher - 92%
Hooded Crow, Mallard - 87%
Wigeon 75%
Greylag goose 67%
Canada goose, Heron 58%
Curlew, Little Grebe, Redshank - 42%

If you've got anyone interested in those species that should help give them an idea of where to look.

Almost forgot - 

The photography is pretty good too . . . . . .
