Great report, I've done similar with my boots, fell about 10 foot, down a path in the South Downs, learnt my lesson always fold my socks over the top now!!
I did a couple of Seawatches at Portsoy a few years ago, cracking place brought back good memories reading your post!

Glad its not just me Paul - I genuinely seem to have one mishap every trip -.

Portsoy is great for seawatching, in fact the whole coast is.

Excellent report. Made us think of trip back it is nearly 10 years since we last saw a Capercallie.

Thank you very much Dave. I was extremely lucky, no doubt about it.

I have only ever seen one Caper before in my life. It was just sheer fortune.
Meant the world to me, I have to say. Once in a life-time experience.

Stunner of a bird and well worth the wait.
