Nice wander round the village fields, 4 Yellowhammers, a lot of singing Skylarks, a female Reed Bunting, Wren, Chaffinch and six rather late on parade Fieldfares(though the rivers and lakes in Finland are only just melting, so perhaps they aren't so late). Pheasant calling in the distance, Rookery in full voice and the Greenfinches seem to be back in the village in some numbers.

Montreathmont forest visit briefly today, a bit quiet this time of year, Male Bullfinch, Chaffinch, Siskin along with Blue, Coal and Great Tits, Blackcap and Goldfinches on the track. A Red Squirrel popped into say hello, saw three Brown Hare leverets and a couple of adults on the way home.
Had a wander to Scurdie Ness lighthouse, hoping for a sight of one of the Red Backed Shrikes, but none to be seen. Sea flat calm, very distant rafts of Kittiwake's and Auks and a few young Eiders close in. Rock Pipits, Skylarks in profusion, a couple of Linnets and Whitethroat, nice day for a walk.
