Back on Monday, Val Peacock had seen a Little Egret fly past Port Charlotte, the second one that she has seen from her house down in Port Charlotte this season. 

Today, Peter saw a group of 15 Pale bellied Brents fly up Loch Indaal and land on the water directly out from his house down in Bruichladdich.

Late afternoon, we had 2 different groups of White fronted Geese each of around 50 birds seen over at Coull.
