A visit early morning confirmed that all the Tufted Ducks have gone, no doubt scared off by BST. Very little indeed remained. I was completely gobsmacked to find that the 2 Wigeon that I found last week were still present.

The other 'notable' thing this morning was that 3 of the memorial benches had been vandalised. Heritage Loch has a number of memorials that families have dedicated to departed family members. These memorials include trees and park benches with name plaques etc. At least 3 of the benches had been smashed up. Who, I ask you, can be so low to do such things ? A nearby discarded cheap cider bottle perhaps held some of the answers !
The nature reserve at least has some birds, including a Snipe, 1 Little Grebe and a Heron. There was a further Little Grebe on the loch.
In search of Sand Martin I headed to Hogganfield where there were none. A Great Crested Grebe however, showed quite nicely:
Exotic Ducks also provided some interest. What I really mean is that they were in range of the DSLR:
