Here at the breezy end of the village, we've logged a small selection of spring arrivals in the same vein as Collieston Birder's recent exploits - Chifchaffs and Goldcrests seem to be the order of the day, with one of the former in the garden yesterday (nice). In addition, a lone Sand Martin was busily forging its way north over Forvie this morning, with at least six Sandwich Terns at the ternery nearby.
On Sand Loch this week, the long-staying female Scaup was joined for a while by a handsome drake, the first one (in adult plumage at least) that I've recorded here.
Hopefully things will gather pace on the migrant front from now onwards...
