Happy New Year!

2016 has brought a storm lasting some days. With it Little Auks have started streaming past with nearly 400 seen in less than 90 minutes watching today. Yesterday one was taken into care by Craig and Ruth by the Sand Loch.  Longer counts were difficult in the atrocious conditions. Otherwise most notable around Collieston was a drake Goosander frequenting Cotehill on New Years day and a Raven in the Kirkton area the same day.
Today there was a Little Gull mid afternoon infant of Waulkmill Hide and a Gannet unusually in the same area.
