I saw Twa Corbies Makin a Mane

   
Just some photos from a walk at St Cyrus, followed by a record Purple Sandpiper count for recent years at Arbroath.

At St Cyrus two Ravens with different prey/carrion birds, and on the beach a Carrion Crow with a Redwing.

Arbroath, 77 Purple Sandpipers counted at the harbour and a good count of waders at Inchcape, which for a change, and due to the weather no doubt, nobody walked along or let a dog flush them from the beach. The pair of Long-tailed Ducks were still in the harbour.




Raven with?
