A nice, bright day with plenty
of sunshine and a variable but light breeze dropping off to virtually nothing
by the evening; the day’s bird highlights were 2 Quail,
one flushed from underneath the bar window at the Obs and another which
randomly flew along the beach at Brides as we had just finished tracking down
the Great Black-backed Gull chicks around the loch – we were getting worried
that we wouldn’t get it on our year list!
Other birds included the Whooper Swan still, the
Corncrake still, a Black-tailed Godwit, 4 Whimbrel, a Woodpigeon, 2 Collared
Doves, 2 singing Lesser Whitethroats – at Ancum Willows and Sangar and a Common
Redpoll at Holland.
