The Kinnordy Bittern eventually obliged today in front of the Gullery Hide at Kinnordy and spent a limited amount of time in the open, although not very close to the hide. Also seen in the same 30 minute period, a Hen Harrier female, a Sparrowhawk and around 10 Bearded Tits. Elsewhere on the loch were, Gadwall, Shoveler Drakes, Tufted Ducks, Goldeneye, Teal and a Goosander male. Along the paths Bullfinches and a Treecreeper as well as the usual small birds.
