With a report of a Pectoral Sandpiper on my doorstep, Lynda and myself headed down to the west side of Findhorn Bay. Now I must admit to not visiting this part of Findhorn Bay very often, this is due to the severe lack of parking spots. But today we found a nice place not far from the path leading down to the bay so this may be put on my regular patch list.
Unfortunately the Pectoral looks to have either moved on or was out feeding on the vast expanse of exposed mud on the bay, however there was much to keep us both interested:
Osprey x4, Black Tailed Godwit x 45, Canada Geese x 35, Whimbrel x1, Greenshank x 2, Knot 30+ and Pink Footed Geese 270!
A cracking couple of hours.
