Rain, rain .... and more rain.
Saturday, March 10, 2007
Spent the afternoon around Irvine Beach Park. The severe wind meant very dramatic seas, but relatively few birds about. Highlights along the shore were some very confiding Turnstones. Behind the dunes, 24 Oystercatchers had taken refuge on the amenity grass and 4 Little Grebes were together on the canoeing lake. Also plenty of birds down by the river, including Wigeon, Red breasted Merganser, Eider and Goldeneye. Most notable however was a first winter Glaucous Gull loafing in the watery sunshine.
