Uist News, Monday 23rd February We have had a very wet and breezy weekend here on Uist. It is forecast to improve for a few hours this afternoon but not for long as there is more rain and wind expected tonight. Wildlife spotted on the croft over the weekend were oystercatchers, lapwings and gulls making the most of the muddy ground near the shed. There was also an Eagle close by, but unfortunately, we didn't manage to spot it. A Mistle Thrush whos name derives from a fondness for mistletoe berries was also seen at Grogarry on South Uist. This large thrush is aften identified by a harsh, dry "chack-chack" call that sounds similar to an old-fashioned football rattle.
Miniature narcissus is just another name for a dwarf daffodil variety. Like regular-sized daffodils, they grow from fall planted bulbs and bloom in spring. The size of a dwarf daffodil depends on the variety, but generally they grow 4 to 6 inches (10-15 cm.) tall with flowers that are just one and a half inches (4 cm.).
