Islay Blogging Roundup #324
It's approaching two months now since the last Islay Blogging Roundup, so I thought I'll better have a go at another one. It probably won't be a very long and detailed one as I'm running a bit late after the changing of the clocks last night, but better than nothing. Here we go, a few interesting blog entries covering Islay:
Neil and friends from Northamptonshire visited Islay and covered their visit in a number of posts: The journey to Islay, Birds of Islay, Islay Birds Monday, Islay Birds Tuesday, Jura, Islay Birds Thursday and Back from Islay. Ade and Caroline from Cambridgeshire also visited mainly for birdwatching and wrote about it in Islay,22nd March, Islay,23rd March, Islay and Jura,24th March, Islay,25th March and Islay,26th March.
A bit of Islay whisky: Petja has two birthday presents, Laphroaig 200 Years and Ardbeg 200 Years.

Struggling to pick a specific entry from the Islay Birds blog as there are so many, I'd say just go over an discover.
To close again few pictures: Amy has a Sunset at Saligo, Island of Islay, Scotland. A different type of picture from Carolyn, a Linocut of Portnahaven on Islay. Klaus brings us Whisky in pictures: Bruichladdich still maintenance.
