Due to the recent heat, (I had to take off my jersey) I haven't gone a wandering and instead have stuck around the Arbroath area and wasted time trying to take impossible photos of Swifts. As the Swifts are unreliable visitors over my garden, I took more Hoverfly photos which proved difficult to identify some of them.
Still at West Links and Victoria Park are three Mediterranean Gulls, more Redshanks, Dunlin and at last more juvenile Black-headed Gulls.
Also found while doing my Webs survey on Sunday, another Med Gull, Common Sandpiper, Whimbrel and 28 Sandwich Terns.

I've been told this is a Hollyhock, currently beginning to flower in Olive's garden
