The weather is a back to normal, wet and windy as seen in the view of Port Charlotte above. Still unseasonably warm though with the temperature hovering around 10 degrees. The wind is to get up for an other fierce day tomorrow. Despite this the The Ribble Bird Tours were out and about, spying no less than 5 WTE over Ellister this morning, being mobbed by 2 ravens and a buzzard. They also successfully located a cackling goose by Kilchoman Distillery and the 'star birds' at Loch Skerrols.
Mark at Loch Gruinart counted 1428 golden plover there today, that'll help him get to sleep tonight! Also 583 Greenland white-fronted geese were counted in a roost count yesterday.
David at The Oa reported a flock of 270 fieldfare there at the visitor carpark. David also kindly sent in the following images from last Thursday when over 100 twite were ringed.
