Christine's walking & birds blog

A walk between showers brought two singing whitethroats on the bull park, and my first sedge warbler of the year.


There were still three dunlin whizzing about on the spit, and it was nice to hear their wheezy trills again - like heavy smokers having a laugh.


Seven turnstone were foraging close together in the seaweed.


There was a pair of goosanders on the river, and as I watched them my first house martin of the year swooped across the spit towards the loch.
