Mediterranean Gull 3rd calendar year at West Links, Arbroath. Both birds found by John A
Same bird as above, showing dark on its outer primary
Also an adult with yellow/orange bill tip
Osprey at the Lurgies, I hope it's only weed trailing from its talon and not fishing line
The first summer Great Egret found by Dan this week, more are welcome along with Spoonbills!
Little and large in the Egret world
Common Sandpiper juvenile, I noted the yellow legs and checked against Spotted Sandpiper, as you can see the Common has a long tail projection, whereas Spotted short. The harsh light is probably washing out the green legs making them look yellow
The light coming off the seaweed has made this Lapwing many strange colours
