Led a guided walk this morning and then also had a few extra laps around to try and add a few more species. Managed 44 species in all. Highlights being a Whimbrel which flew into Invergowrie Bay, a Sedge Warbler in Buzzard Wood, at least 2 Lesser Whitethroats, a flyover Swift and quite a few Common Whitethroats. Blackcaps and Willow Warblers in good numbers, with one male Blackcap collecting nest material by car park.
