NORTH RONALDSAY - 16th April


A very similar day with a brisk easterly wind and thick fog drifting in and out (mainly in though!); walked the west coast again with a very similar array of species as yesterday just in smaller numbers with the exception of my first Swallow of the year hawking backwards and forwards along the wall just north of the Bothy and a flyover Redpoll sp.   Other totals included 6 Ring Ouzels, 20 Dunnocks, 35 Robins, a Grey Wagtail, 3 Blackcaps, 3 Chiffchaffs, 5 Woodcock, 3 Woodpigeons, 6 Wheatears, 2 Chaffinches, 2 Bramblings and still good numbers of Thrushes.
