Jack Snipe and a message from Zebedee

   
A bit of a tour as I drove Olive around for many varied reasons, you'd think there would be a hairdresser in Arbroath! Said the man who has two haircuts a year in Montrose, and only if it's raining and there isn't a queue!


Dunlin and Grey Plovers, click here      Vixen in my garden (78 seconds)      Little Egret, Monikie Raven calling in background?


Three photos of a Jack Snipe seen on a survey at Carnoustie Golf Links, amalgamated and not neccessarily to scale. It flushed from my feet on the edge of a small loch on the Buddon Course and flew the short distance to the island





Great Black-backed Gull ringed on the Isle of May in 2017 as a pullus and a frequent visitor to Arbroath Harbour in winter. Ringed yellow X-088, photographed on the breakwater at Inchcape Park from shelter behind the sewage station, twas very windy





Redwing in the first paddock at the Mains of Dun track





Aconites as confirmed by my expert horticulturist




Snowdrops





A small part of the Dunlin flock at the Wigeon Hide with some of the 34 Grey Plovers





Eight Greylags and a single Pink-footed Goose were in the field at the Lurgies, can you spot the Pink-footed?





Dunlin





This Mallard was asleep as I walked up the Lurgies path and I thought I might walk past it without it waking up
