The light was awful at Musselburgh when I arrived but it was entirely windless & this was favourable for scanning the sea. There was the expected scatterings of Velvet Scoter, Long Tailed Duck and Slav Grebes however, a Black Throated Diver was excellent particularly since I failed to see any at all in 2013.
At the River Esk Mouth waders included Knot, Grey Plover & Bar Tailed Godwit.
Aberlady was much brighter and although there was no sign of the Queen Eider there was Common Scoter and 3 Red Throated Divers. The sea buckthorn was full of Fieldfare and I got lucky with a female Blackcap.
