So the decision was made to head to St Gothian Sands where it hopefully would be calmer, Ashley and I arrived before Paul and started on to the reserve, as we got to the bridge area between the two fenced off pools I was looking at the left hand pool where two Shelduck were feeding when we heard Paul shouting and pointing " pick up your bins I can't believe it he said" or words to that effect.upon looking at the spit on the island on the right hand pool were 4 BLACK-WINGED STILTS so we ran around to get better views and spent the next hour putting the news out and taking 328 photo's as these are a rare bird and to get four was really something.
No I am not posting 328 images you will have to make do with the two below for now.
BLACK-WINGED STILT.
Cracking find. Well done Monty.
