Swallows are around saw 2 last sunday
Some bird movement at last.
Going: flocks of geese were leaving last night and early this morning heading NW over Dunnet Head.
Coming: Whimbrel at Corsback and Willow Warblers singing at Brough and Dunnet Forest.
Spring must have arrived! But still I have not seen a Swallow.

Swallows are around saw 2 last sunday
sometimes the devil needs an advocate
I saw a dozen or so swallows up the mall yesterday. They were fluttering about above me as if it was mid summer. I got the impression they had just arrived from somewhere and were getting their bearings.

Our Swallows just arrived today, as did as both House and Sand Martins. (First time they have all arrived back on the same day)
I did see a swallow at Dunnet Links on Friday, as well as 5 Sandwich Terns at Castlehill the same day and we had a Willow Warbler in the garden on Thursday.
Plenty Pinkfeet geese moving around the Scrabster Loch/Hill of Forse area, a few great Northern divers in the bay but I have not seen a skua yet.
Away with the birds
Skua today at Thurso East
