Thursday 12th September

The weather continued in much the same vein - showery, cool, blustery from the west and sunny in between.

Gary T. and Ed Burrell both reported that the Short-toed Lark was present again in the same field at Cornabus. Gary also reported a Merlin after Meadow Pipits near Ballygrant and David Dinsley noted a 3CY White-tailed Eagle over the Oa RSPB car park.

Other news concerned migrant Pink-footed Geese, with Linden K. noting a flock of 48 on the flats at Gruinart, with possibly two flocks of c.40 each going over. Clive Mc. saw another flock of 55 going over Gruinart this evening, so a possible tally of c.183 birds.
