Olive wanted to go for a walk so Monikie seemed suitable, after all it has a drake Smew, Pochard, Kingfisher and others. First thing in the morning I'd done one of my short Non Estuarine Wetland Survey sectors at Inchcape, Arbroath at low tide, a section which is effectively the west breakwater. I repeated the survey again at high tide when there actually were birds around! (virtually none at low tide)

Grey Heron, although it was in the shade it let me get quite close
