Ythan Estuary - Back to Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Ythan Estuary - Back to Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Sunday 4 August 2024

This time my mum was busy, at a birthday party in Ellon, so my dad brought my sisters and I on a walk at Forvie NNR. We first heard the very loud Grey Herons which nest in the conifers near the Waterside bridge car park. To change things up a bit, we went across Forvie Moor first. On the moor we saw a few Linnets and some Swallows but the wind was making it hard to hear birds. After a while we did see 2 Stonechats. Once at the beach we saw a few Herring Gulls and a Great Black-Backed Gull. On the beach we saw a few Grey Seals and a Sandwich tern. On the way back we saw a Black-headed gull and a few Lapwings resting with some Redshanks. Unfortunately, it was high tide so we didn't see many birds.
