Parked just beyond road end in Glen Isla. Round of 5 Simms: Finally Hill, Bawhelps, Craigie Thieves, Bodnasparet, Mid Hill.PGCE23/07/2020
A good round of six tops from head of Glen Isla where I camped a couple of nights by the parking area. Apart from the walking were two encounters, close up, with Hen Harriers. The first rose up from the trackside ditch about 10 metres in front of me, looked at me for a bit before moving off, then a similar incident less than 5 minutes later which may, or may not have been the same bird. Then, much later in the day three rose up in front of me, again no more than 10 metres away. I guess a pair and this years chick which would be full grown by mid July. Apart from that there were the tops: Finalty Hill, down to Bawhalps, and Craigie Thieves, cut corner on way across to Mid Hill so I could get some water (left my water bottle at tent) but overdid it so missed it, round to Bodnasparet; back to pick up mid hill and finally Badandun Hill, down to road for walk back to tent. A really good day. More estate tracks than shown on map.dickscroop16/07/2020
