On a day of gales, Saturday, there were eight Purple Sandpipers sitting it out on the beach at Inchcape Park, Arbroath. They couldn't sit on the breakwater, they're first choice roost due to the waves crashing over it
Not often that I've had to take photos at 2500 iso, but needs must when it's grim
This ringed Ringed Plover, yellow flag 113 and blue ring has been at Victoria Park since early September, it's one of a local ringers birds
I'd never noticed before that the current Lifeboat at Arbroath was called Inchcape, the first one I can remember when I was at primary school was also Inchcape
I wasn't quick enough to get back to the harbour mouth to see the lifeboat come in through the waves, or was it that I wasn't smart enough to think about it
Being hauled back into the shed
I'd gone to Kinnaber Links on Friday looking for Short-eared Owls but I think the wind was too strong if any were actually there. This Jay with another flew almost over me and on the sunlit side, there's a first!
Not often that Snipe are seen flying in the middle of the day, this one flew past when I was sitting on the south bank of the North Esk at Kinnaber
How many Waxwing photos does anyone need? I was at Lower Craigo Street in Montrose to see this years first, and nearby birds, so thought it would be impolite not to photograph them
Out of sequence here, this Dunnock and a single distant Stonechat were the only birds I saw in the dunes at Kinnaber
The Greenland White-fronted Goose was still around at Balgavies on Friday. Taken with my Canon SX60 from the hide through a gap in the willows
