So Hill of Beath makes the second site to bring up the half century with a handful of
Common Gull this morning - not only an expected species but somewhat overdue, being a regular winter visitor to the area. A nice
GBB Gull drifted serenely past amidst the daily Herring Gull commute and a couple of single
Greenfinch made their way north along with a
Turdus sp. which evaded identification by timing its run to co-incide with my streaming blurry eyes as I climbed the hill in the strong wind. The
Mute Swan pair was flying north towards the reserve as I set out to walk. Also amongst the houses in a couple of places
Coal Tits were singing from small stands of fir trees. So only 20 species to go to reach my target for the year. I think we're going to make it.
