Ness Point and Links Hill

Still strong Easterly Wind

Call in at Ness to find still just a single LITTLE GULL but also picked up a YELLOW LEGGED HERRING GULL. This bird was hanging in the air with others but did alight for just a brief few seconds to confirm.

At Links Hill: A small flock of LINNET and a BLACK HEADED GULL with metal ring. See picture below.  Stockholm bird And now a pair of feet from a Latvian bird. (Managed the number this time)

While watching the gulls this little wader flew in and decided to walk right by my open window. This bird was so diminutive in size it was almost unbelievable. But as far as I am concerned it was a Dunlin. Even if it did suffer from dwarfism.
