I went out yesterday "doon the watter" as people would say around here.
Stopped first at Newark Castle in Port Glasgow. Eider ducks, which became pretty ubquitious all day, a couple of black guillemots and the usual suspects of gulls.
Then parked at Tesco in the Port and from the esplanade saw the diver/grebes on the bird identification thread, mute swan, goldeneye, little grebe, cormorants, merganser, redshank, curlew and more eiders.
Moved down to Gourouk, Cloch point where I watched the porpoises, and was pleased with my digiscoping efforts for a change.
Finally stopped off in Largs where I added wigeon, black backed gulls, but by now the sun was so low over the water it became quite difficult.
