An afternoon stroll with the dog on arrival along the beach. Sanderling, Turnstone and Redshank ran through the sea-weed. Bar-tailed Godwit and Oystercatcher on the sand, and a flock of 100+ Curlew flew over. A Rock Pipit briefly landed at my feet, looked at me, called, and then flew off.
We are staying in a lovely cottage with an upstairs view of the sea. Scope set up and scans. Simon picked up a couple of Manx Shearwater, as well as Eider and Common Scoter. Red Throated Diver flew past before we picked up 2 divers on the sea. It was the 2 Black Throated Divers earlier reported on birdguides :-) Quality birding from the comfort of the cottage.
