Red Kite

A long overdue Red Kite for the Collieston area (for me at least), which looked to be tagged, flew past fairly low at Kirkton, towards  Forvie Sands at 18.40.
Otherwise the Ythan highlights for me were a Little Egret, still down in the Inches area, and a good variety of common waders including Whimbrel and Ruff scattered the whole length. Meikle Loch had 4 Greenshank today, 3 Ruff,  1 Green Sandpiper and at least 2 Common Sandpipers, as well as at least 10 Dunlin.
