By May I was beginning to see some young birds, some still at the nest building stage and some which had just arrived back to breed.

Meadow Pipit at Scurdie Ness, not ready to give away its nest site until I moved on

Still a single Pink-footed Goose at the Lurgies which seemed fit enough to be able to migrate
