Got out thanks to all who picked me up ect, found the Crane reported near Dunbar on the 25th, Still distant but seems I had it closer than all the rest that conected with it. Musselburgh produced Juv Curlew Sand, 7+ Ruff, Greenshank, Black/T/Godwit. The Lesser Yellow Legs, showed well at Aberlady and is now well into Winter Plumage, been a Month since I have seen this bird. At Seaton Sands, the returning Med Gull ( ringed 7p8 ) has returned for its Winter stay, this is its 7th Winter at this sight, Cool Eh!!. So a good W/end for me hope all injoyed theres as much.
Record Crane Shot Attached.
