Damn!!!!

Went to East Lothian more in hope than expectation of seeing yesterday's Gull Billed Tern at Belhaven Bay. Given it had flown off east at 18:00 the previous evening I wasn't too keen on the chances of connecting.

With negative news from the pager service first thing I checked out Tyninghame collecting both Little Stint & Curlew Sand for the year.

At Torness I had a nice Yellow Wagtail,Spot Fly and 3 Peregrines. I spent about 90 mins at Belhaven & with no sign and no real prospect, I felt, of it reappearing I left for home at about 1:45. It turned up again about 3pm. Bugger!

Shelduck where the Tern had been the previous day :(
