Loch Na Keal

A trip out on to Loch Na Keal with Mull Charters. We were made very welcome and a had a great time with 4 approaches by the eagle followed by a look around the rest of the Loch. Nice to see things from a fresh perspective and also nice to see an eagle that isn't a black speck 5 miles away.

Route of the whole boat trip

Later we had a very close encounter with a marauding mink, killing rabbits and frogs. It was harder to track than the eagle!

Finally a drive around Calgary Bay with its spectacular views.
