Whats about - Late November?

Many many reports of waxwings on a daily basis and seen quite a few here in different areas - Kincorth, Crathes Castle, near Grammar School, Bath St - Stonehaven & yesterday had 15 arriving in the tree beside our garden yesterday most of the day.
Other birds reported in the wider area include a bittern at Strathbeg & Kinnordy and a black necked grebe reported from Montrose Basin today.

For me, nipping out at 3pm during my break on Friday 23rd resulted in another otter sighting. Poor, fading light but just a joy to watch regardless.

 At Cowie, stonehaven, a few commoner waders inclusing purple sandpiper and the well stocked birdfeeders at the garden there ensures tree sparrow are usually guaranteed.
