Yes
Sheep were everywhere but didn't seem to want to pose for me.

Didn't stop me trying though

Then there was 'Wings over Mull' a very small bird of prey centre.

This guys eyes reminded me of our cat!

After waiting ages in a biting cold wind there was a flying display which was a bit of a non event. A mouse was the final treat and I have a nice sequence of it going down. This one is typical.

There were various birds in cages or tethered to perches looking very bored. According to a sign waiting around doing nothing is natural to them. Some did look like they didn't care others looked like they wanted out.

Think this was the Golden Eagle. Wouldn't come down from the top of his shed.

There was an American eagle in another cage but it refused to come out of its shed house - except when i was too far away when it came out and stretched its wings. Moment I headed towards it..... straight back in the shed!

No doubt they mean well and care about the birds but I didn't really like the place. Everything seemed too small.
