After a good nights sleep it was time to get out, especially considering the fantastic weather. My main destination for my first day on Islay was Ardnave with its dunes. Having arrived at Ardnave I first enjoyed the beautiful view over Loch Gruinart towards Killinallan. Passing Ardnave Loch I spotted two hares running through the dunes. I managed to get quite close to them and take the pictures right and below. One of them seemed to be a bit more cautious and had its ears down most of the time, possibly trying to hide. The other one was more active and was scouting the area with its ears listening to the various sounds.
From Ardnave Loch I continued towards Ardnave Point, from where you have a good view over to Nave Island: |
