resumed our journey, proceeding down the loch, and visiting 

 Liath Eilean on the way. The Red-breasted Merganser was 

 nesting here, but the only two nests in which down was found 

 had been robbed. Rock-Pipits and Oyster-catchers were con- 

 spicuous, and young of the Common Sandpiper were got. The 

 common Sheld-Duck was again seen as we approached this 

 island. 



We proceeded down the loch without further incident, but a 

 Skua too far off to be identified was seen. 



We had seen young of the Oyster-catcher, Common Gull, 

 Rock-Pipit, and Common Sandpiper, but in no instance did we 

 see young of either of the Terns or of the Red-breasted Merganser. 

 The Terns' nests had chiefly two eggs, but a dozen nests having 

 three eggs each were seen. The Merganser's were in all 

 states, from a nest with three eggs, covered over with heather 

 debris, to nests with a full complement, completely covered with 

 down. Many photographs of nests w^ere taken. It only re- 

 mains to say that throughout the trip the most delightful 

 summer weather prevailed.
