Island 493 - Sgiath Ruadh, Aros, Mull

Sgiath Ruadh is a small uninhabited tidal island located on the south side of the estuary of the River Aros and off the east coast of the Isle of Mull.  The mud between the island and the mainland of Mull felt solid under my feet, as I crossed to the island at low tide. Sgiath Ruadh is covered in grass and silverweed.  Thrift was in flower on the shoreline when I visited on a sunny afternoon in mid June 2021.
