The geese were spooked by a Piper Cherokee plane showing just how many were roosting unseen behind a bank.
The Pintail is the first I've seen this season although I'd think if I looked for them they'd have been around for a few weeks.
The Terns seem to have gone now so some wader photos from Arbroath late in the day were all I could manage.
