There was another Iceland Gull just prior to the New year around Cransdale Head , a 2nd year this time, as good numbers of gulls fed in the sea on the debris from the recent storms.
Around the area today, the 5th, were at least 3 Short-eared Owls near the Sand Loch, a male Hen Harrier again crossing the road late on going towards Forvie NNR and a few flocks of Common Scoter visible on the sea from Cransdale and Old Slains Castle. There are still a few Long-tailed Ducks both on the sea and the local lochs and floods. Larger numbers than usual seem to be in the area since the storms.
