Potarch Bridge

Saturday 22 June 2024

During my sister's final show at the ISA we went to Potarch Bridge, between Banchory and Aboyne. The bridge is a very scenic sight and was even nicer in the evening sun. Unfortunately when we arrived, a family were having a big barbecue on the rocks, even though it was not allowed. We soon heard and got views a few flyover Grey Wagtails and one landed on a rock in the sunlight. Later, my dad found a Common Sandpiper feeding on the opposite bank and I soon found its mate. The two were feeding - although at quite a distance - on a rock by the water's edge. We had to go by then and finished off with a heard-only Sedge Warbler singing from deep in the bushes.
