After work today I stopped to give the reserve a good once
over. It was misty and slightly easterly but failed to produce any real fall so
I sat by the loch to photograph the long staying drake Scaup. As I was taking a
few pictures a pair of Garganey appeared and drifted out of the mist towards
me. They didn’t stay long and soon flew north back into the mist… just time for
a photo or two. What a great noise Garganey make, never heard them before
until today… very croakey!
As I was photographing the Garganeys a common sand flew north and a mystery bird
flew over (pictured below) ideas?. I had the camera in my hand at the time... should have been
the bins... could have been the common sand again?
