Arctic Skuas and Pink-footed Geese

A trip to Kinnaber to hopefully find Skuas and there were three Arctic's hunting along the beach chasing various birds for their catch. Later at the Lurgies at Montrose Basin I found 14 Pink Footed Geese which are the first I've seen this season and maybe a bit earlier this year.
