Did Mark see them or was he highly gripped off:-O
He was first to clap eyes on them. 1st for Island apparently.

Can't tell whether that was ironic or not... I haven't caught up with a wood warbler in Lothian for years myself and that was a migrant along the coast. Pretty sure they used to sing in the Hermitage and up at Craiglockhart tennis centre - 10-15 years ago - is that right?
Anyone go for the WT Robin today? Missed it in Turkey myself so wouldn't mind one a little closer... Anyone checked the coast recently?

Thanks for all your support on wood warbler in lothian ;-)
Nice one and fair enough since you were in the area
Once again I have no chance of travelling, just too busy with work. Might see it if it hangs around for a month...
Where was your sinensis? I thought I had one at Muss the other week sitting on the metal pole/platform in the sea that is visible from the hides over the back of the scrapes. I walked round to the coastal path for a closer look but couldn't nail it as the light was disappearing fast and it wasn't very cooperative. I reckoned a carbo was more likely in that habitat, but...

Hi folks
I'm going to be in Edinburgh next week for a couple of days for work. If I am fortunate and my first meeting doesn't drag on too long I may have a bit of time to spare in the afternoon/evening and I was wondering about heading into East Lothian for a spot of birding. Where would you recommend? Are there still any Curlew Sands about anywhere? Anything else worth seeing? I haven't really birded in that area before, so the more info the better!
Thanks in advance.
