NORTH RONALDSAY - 13th August


A decent day with lightish winds and a bit of sunshine poking through, spent the morning doing more Fulmar chick ringing during which there were 7 Black-tailed Godwits and a Ruff on the excellent Cauldhame pool.   A random look around the centre of the island in the afternoon produced 2 Wigeon, 3 Black-tailed Godwits and 6 Bar-tailed Godwits around Ancum before a look across The Links had me find a cracking adult BUFF-BREASTED SANDPIPER wandering around with a flock of Ringed Plovers and later a flock of 16 Bar-tailed Godwits.
