I went looking for some early Kittiwakes or Razorbills at Arbroath Cliffs on Friday, a fools errand it turned out to be. Instead I sat near the foot of the cliffs at Mariners Grave and waited for a Fulmar to stray close, many did but boy do they glide fast. Also a single Shag came to roost and preen.

Fulmar
They appear to be very curious birds
This Shag had been sitting on the furthest away rocks, then it appeared below me in Mariners Grave
Always enough room for a gull photo
