White-tailed Sea Eagle

We tried to book a boat trip to search for one of the Sea Eagles that live on the island, but the tour was full. We were driving around the western side of Mull when we came upon several cars pulled off the road near a loch. Many had binoculars and cameras, so we stopped to see what was happening. Lucky us! They had spotted a Sea Eagle way up in the spruce trees at the top of a ridge. We couldn't get a good look with our binocs, but a nice man with a telescope let us look through it and, sure enough, there was the eagle! Just sitting in the tree, surveying his domain. Very cool!
