Migrants arriving

A number of common and scarcer migrants around the village today:
Two Yellow-Browed Warblers in and around the trees at the roadside as you come into the village.
A Yellow Wagtail also overflew the area at 17.30. A scattering of Goldcrest around the village.
Yellow-browed Warbler
The Sand Loch had a Lesser Whitethroat in the afternoon.
The Mains of Slains back road area had good numbers of Meadow Pipit and  Chiff-Chaff, Willow Warbler and a single Garden Warbler. Still a few Ruff and Black-Tailed Godwit in the Slains area as well.
Winds are predicted easterly over next few days so more sure to arrive.
