All within the town boundary of Arbroath, in unfavourable weather, covering the harbour, the beach at Victoria Park, woodland and arable farmland at Hospitalfield, ending at Keptie Pond where I managed to get some shelter from the storms.
Long-tailed Ducks, a pair in Arbroath Harbour, click here for video
The last photo of the Long-tailed drake, unless I get a better one from lower to the water level
It wasn't easy to get a photo of both together
Redshanks hiding out of the strong winds
Now from Victoria Park where this Herring Gull was being hounded for food by its two 1st winter juveniles
Ringed Plover on a narrow strip of beach which wasn't being battered by the sea
Part of a flock of Linnets at Hospitalfield, Arbroath which were feeding in a field of winter bird crop, specially sown for the birds
And where there's small birds in abundance, there's a Sparrowhawk. This male shot across the top of the crop and surely didn't see the Linnets that must have been very close to its flightpath
Female Goosander at Keptie Pond, the first I've seen this year on the pond
Male Goosander when the sky above was showing some blue and reflecting on the water
This male is sitting on some thin, melting ice
