Unbridled Madness at the Ythan Mouth!
Things kicked off a little bit at the Ythan this evening with news emerging of the Bridled Tern photographed at the mouth around 5.00pm...once news emerged and people started arriving the bird had gone...only to re-appear just after 7.00pm. Great scenes reminiscent of Chariots of Fire as local patch birders and even some from further afield made their way gracefully across the sands. Fantastic second record of this species for the region!
