Loch Insh and Killiecrankie......and pit 74 once more
16 May - The journey home broken at Loch Insh reserve, an impressive floodplain (1,2) full of breeding waders, with Curlew and Lapwing in evidence - Goosander and Goldeneye on the main loch. Killiecrankie gorge held at least 2 singing Wood Warblers audible from the car park on a quick stop.
And the home patch......a stop at pit 74 CWP, in warm spring sunshine by Scottish standards, was productive - after a good variety of waders while I was away, a Sanderling remained, also an Oystercatcher and 2 Redshank - and 4 Hobbies superb appeared overhead feeding on insects, then vanished again.
