Suburban Coastal Birds

You don't have to go far to see birds in Scotland and a short visit to Arbroath Harbour on a cold day in November delivered, Rock Pipit, Dipper, Mute Swan, Cormorant, Great Black-backed Gulls, Herring Gulls, Turnstone, Redshank, Ringed Plover and Eider Ducks. I'm sure if I'd been earlier, it was getting dark more could have been seen.
