Deerness visit

I don't often go birding east but the Deerness peninsular can be very good for migrants and Sandside Bay is quite a hotspot with a quality list of migrants recorded there. However, yesterday there were Swallows and a Chiffchaff.

Along the way at East Denwick Plantation there were hundreds of larvae of Striped Alder Sawfly.
