Scotland 2012 part 4 - Birds and Wildlife

A study of an Oystercatcher..this one captured at Loch Lomand.  

A Ringed Plover.  This one is on the nest at Southend near the Mull of Kintyre


In the UK this is only seen in Scotland..the Hooded Crow.

A rare capture.  A Twite.

An unexpected sighting ...thought it was the Common Guillemot but it isn't , it's the lesser known Black Guillemot

Still a relatively rare site out of the south of England...a Mandarin duck.  This one was a one day visitor to our pond at our base at Kirnan

A nice portrait of a Rock Pippet.  This one is at the beach at Southend, the Mull of Kintyre.

A pair of Wheatears...

I'm pleased with the shot and the sighting..my first of a female Stonechat.
