Great set Linda. Otter apart there are some less common avian targets. I assume the wader was a Sandpiper but not certain of the BOP. One of the harriers I'm guessing. :shrug:

Thanks JS. It's a green sandpiper, we have currently 3 at Haugh, one obviously playing gooseberry!! It's only Mr sprawk, I wish it was a harrier :D

It's been otterly brilliant at the Haugh. Yesterday they Otters were on show for at least 15 mins despite all the noise and laughter of me falling on my ass, I blame the wellies, canny quite crouch doon in wellies 😆 one even came out the water for a wee scratch


Wasn't much else to see on the clyde other than usual goldeneye , goosander, little grebe and loads of moorhen !!!yawn yawn :shrug:

But can never have enough Otters and a deer and a bird or 2 then!!! :D
