Red-backed Shrike in Aberdeen

A trip to Girdle Ness in Aberdeen today to see if a reported Red-backed Shrike was still there, it was and a helpful birder put us on it when the info we had wasn't exactly correct. It was near the allotments on Greyhope Road but actually beside a greenkeepers dump on the golf course. A Roseate Tern was seen again in Arbroath and I did see it eventually but also got the Black Tern below as a bonus, no photo of the Roseate though.
