On the outgoing tide at Tayock, the Pink-footed Geese got ever further away as more of the mud was exposed. A young female Sparrowhawk flew in and was chased west by two Crows, it then returned but this time chasing a single Crow!
The Great Egret was originally near the Old Harbour at the Lurgies, but I couldn't find a way to get closer without being seen, eventually it flew upstream without flushing.
