    Myself and the other half visited Vane Farm (or Loch Leven as we supposed to call it now) today. Plenty wildfowl about. Did enjoy seeing a male Pintail which is a bird I have not seen enough of. Highlight was a couple of Brambling under one of the feeders with the Chaffinches. Not a patch on...

    Thanks Delia. We actually going to see the Palace as a family day out ( tbh I just looking forward to birding in the grounds!) Dont think I can do Quarrymill on this occasion but looks like somewhere I will do in the future.

    13 guillemots in Arbroath harbour this evening, up from the seven I had last week. Saw a great black backed gull kill one of them this evening. Swooped down and broke its neck. Brutal!

    Hope so, Magpies are great. Although if they do take over Dundee and Angus will they lose their appeal?

    Re Riverside, keep meaning to make a visit here. Maybe if you start a thread it might encourage some new visitors. My birding seriously curbed by being on night shift but did enjoy a good few thousand geese over the house this evening.
