States to our tent at the Utah Scottish Games, I noticed a young professional couple standing Clan Maclean Heritage Trust in the aisle adjacent to our tent. Over time, I continued to glance over and see they Clan Maclean of Western New York were still there after all our guests had left so I walked out and introduced myself. I asked if they were enjoying their time at the games and what they said to me still resonates. “We have been watching you greet all these people you seem to know. Yet, as we listen, we realized you don’t know them at all. Why do you do this? What benefit do you get from all this hard work.” I fell speechless. Then at that moment, I felt generations of pride come over me as a smile formed on my face and I said “I love teaching people about our family. I love the look on their face when they realize for the first time we have an ancestral home, Duart Castle.” I shared with them our concern over preserving this home and our efforts to restore and maintain the castle for future MEET OUR NEWEST MACLEAN generations. What they did next surprised me.

Travelling up the west side of Loch Lomond with the low cloud cloaking the hills, the banks ‘did'nae appear too bonnie!’ We saw several Common Buzzards and Grey Herons en route before we stopped for a break at Inveraray, where a Lesser Black-backed Gull joined some scavenging European Herring Gulls. Heading further westwards, the skies gradually brightened and illuminated the lovely Highland scenery. We arrived in Oban where we met the remainder of the group and it wasn't long before we saw Black Guillemots in the bay. The ferry crossing was relatively calm and although we saw further Black Guillemots, other auk species proved too distant. An Arctic Tern flew by and a Grey Seal was hauled out on a skerrie in the middle of the Sound. Once on Mull more Common Buzzards were seen on the drive to our hotel, plus a trio of Northern Ravens. After checking in, we crossed the isthmus of the island from Salen to Loch na Keal where birds included Eurasian Oystercatcher, Eurasian Curlew and Common Shelduck, though these were easily out shone by our first White-tailed Eagles with two of these magnificent birds, both adults, perched in conifers above our location.
