Ness Point and Loathingland Lake

Mist over the water at Ness so viewing restricted:

CORMORANT going North, where else. Plenty of birds with the occasional RED-THROATED-DIVER putting in an appearance. It also seems that GANNETS have lost there way and where heading South again. All birds flying low to the water and in small parties. 9 PURPLE SAND came in for quick visit and left me with two TURNSTONE. Colour rung HERRING GULL with partner. Also well offshore was a small flock of 9 GREAT CRESTED GREBE which when took to flight confirmed sighting.

Silo:  Two PEREGRINE in appearance today with the male obviously smaller circling round silo and calling. Also she was content to feed on feral job on the box, taking little notice of him. However for all of 3 seconds he landed beside her and cleared again to circle.

Female Bird from what I can see and well fed.
