I took the camera for a walk along the cliff path at Fowlsheugh after fishing today and wasn't disappointed with the huge numbers of sea birds as well as various song birds.
The count taken on June 10th by the RSPB was; Guillemots 45,000, Kittiwake nests 9,400, Razorbills 5,000, Herring Gull nests 260, and 160 Fulmar nests. There are also Puffins, Shags, Eider Ducks and I saw Gannets and Geese fly by. Small birds included what I think were; Linnet, Twite, Mistle Thrush, Blackbird, Jackdaw and Rock Pipits.
The path is under a mile each way and there is a lovely shelter at it's far end with great views, it's all worth the visit and it can be seen from the sea with boat trips arranged from Stonehaven in June and July.
While fishing a large bottlenose dolphin passed by too quickly for me to get the camera but it did bring me some luck in the form of 4 mackerel.
