Sgeir Mhic Iamain There&#039;s a concrete pillar on top of this islet. I can&#039;t be sure, but it&#039;s likely that it&#039;s a former navigation aid. There&#039;s also an oystercatcher - I&#039;m more sure of that, and it hasn&#039;t stayed as long. — Sgeir Mhic Iamain Credit: Toby Speight

I think the burrows are puffin nests.

Ob Dubh

Loch Shieleabhaig has the most complex series of tidal inlets. Some are dry at low tide, whilst some are isolated salt-water or brackish lagoons. A wonderful and complex area. Ob is the local name for this kind of sheltered (usually tidal) loch.
