Sunday 12th Sept



This is one of the Little Stint that were present earlier this week, taken by Jim Dickson. Before he left yesterday, Jim had 2 Gadwall along with 2 Pintail over on Loch Gruinart. The American Golden Plover was still present and a juvenile Grey Plover too. Down at Port Charlotte on Friday Jim saw a Grey Wagtail.
There was a report in of a Yellow legged Gull being seen over at Kintra, but I have not heard any more about it.
This evening, there was a large flock of Greylag Geese on the barley stubble at Sunderland Farm. Coming home later on and a Barn Owl was out in the rain, as were 4 Hedgehogs and numerous frogs and a few Roe Deer too. I wonder if any of the frogs were some of the ones we released back in July!
