A few photos from Arbroath Harbour in-between cloud, drizzle, rain and wind, but helped by the various birds who have become tolerant of the fishermen in the working harbour. It will be a long time before I get Cormorant photos as good as these.
Tagged on at the bottom of this post, an Eider and an arty photo of a Grey Seal with an unusual reflective photo.
A Cormorant was patrolling the harbour edge and seemed oblivious of me sitting amongst the creels, it came so close at one point that the camera started to lose focus
Two Little Grebes, an apparent pair were resting in a dark corner in-between short fishing sessions in the harbour
I can't plan photos like this one as the birds go where they like. Luckily the Little Grebe swam through the reflections of one of the colourful creel boats
This Grey Heron certainly liked AH35, it would fly off if the fishermen were working too close, but always returned
Just two Turnstones seen, although I didn't search all of the boats and harbour
Usually the first bird to spot danger and warn every other bird. This Redshank tolerated me as it fed on a boat only a few metres away as I stood behind a lamp-post
A lonely drake Eider at Victoria Park
This Grey Seal (with four eyes) was cruising near the Slunks on a slack neap tide
