With weather not looking so promising for visible migration over the weekend I got in a couple of hours of watching at Ferry Hills before work and there was a push of Tree Pipits with 132 over the highest count of the year so far.
If the long range forecast is right ( light to moderate SW wind, settled) then next weekend could be the big one for Tree Pips.
Today
With wet conditions and a light to moderate NE wind, not dissimilar to the conditions on Monday when I went to Fife Ness with the bro, went back there but not such a lively sea watch. Generally always something to see here though with a steady passage of local seabirds, a few manxie and a Bonxie.
Some video grabs from my brothers visit last weekend of one of the Roseate Terns at Kinghorn (The Juvenile):
