Andrew Chick has forwarded the following information to me that was kindly provided by Tom Malarkey.
Thanks very much Tom, this is extremely helpful.
Roy.
Just back from a week on Mull today so I have some very current info on both eagles and otters:
Glen Aros (public road) for golden eagle and white-tailed eagle
Grasspoint for white-tailed eagle
Creag Mhor for golden eagle and peregrine
Loch Scridain for white-tailed eagle
Loch Beg for otter
Loch Tuath for otter
We were too early for corncrake but Iona is the place 28th April onwards. The RSPB trips to the Lettermore hide are well worth £4 of anybody's money - saw m amd f w-t eagle and golden eagle - birds showing for all but 15 mins of 2 hour visit.
Missed an osprey at my local patch (Kilvington in Notts) today but on balance I know where I'd rather have been.
Although it is from 2003 the trip report at the link below proved very useful:
