I had a few days away over Easter. Since coming back it's been house maintenance with little time for anything else. Hence the tardiness of this request.
Pic No1 shows a few waders. They were too far away for me to ID them. So how do you expect us to I hear . Since coming back I have decided they are probably Grey Plovers. A second opinion would help along the ID confidence. Perhaps! :h?:
The other pics I've put in just for interest. You probably recognise Bass Rock which was about 6 miles north. The general area is Belhaven Bay. I've heard the locals call this bit of it Tyninghame Bay. Bill Oddy calls it John Muir Country Park. It's just a smashing walk. Birds or no Birds. Pristine clean golden sands, turquoise sea etc. It's best to go at high tide when there is a gull roost and other birds come into Tyninghame Bay. I was there 4 hours late. The last of the Eiders were going with the flow as the water in Tyninghame Bay drained back into the sea. The Dipper was in Biel Water. A stream which flows into the south end of Belhaven Bay.
Thanks to anyone who would like to have a go.
