Carsethorn & Carse Bay
WeBS, c250 Rngd Plvr, c50 Dunlin & 1 Turnstone a surprise. Otherwise virtually birdless. Carse Bay, 1 Whimbrel having a break, perhaps the "regular"? One pair of the nesting Rngd Plvr have hatched 3 fluff balls which is a veritable miracle for the locality but I think there's another with a scrape somewhere around the spit. Good to see the nest zone "cordoned off" & I didn't think the Oystercatchers either would have a chance when I found the 1 egg last time I was there. There's 2 now & the scrape cleverly identified by a local stone artist. Reassuring that someone does actually give a toss! PJ
