Retired Atco, birding in Burns Country.
The Pectoral Sandpiper I chanced upon at Mossblown. Found it again later at Fail Loch after a landing aircraft at EGPK flushed it #BirdingScotland #UKBirding
A summer plumaged beauty off Dunure, White-billed Diver #UKBirding
Ridiculous views of this juv Sabine's Gull at Troon today, all credit to @BedsGulls for finding #UkBirding
Scrub bashing around Greenan Castle turned up this showy 1st winter Barred Warbler, a first Ayrshire record #UkBirding
Now at Turnberry Point, the Ayrshire Western Sandpiper. I'd never noticed the orange sensory pads on the feet soles before #UKbirding
Saltcoats strikes again for Skuas, a Bonxie through at dawn then a Long-tailed called by J. McManus topped the morning @UKbirding @BirdingScotland

My earliest Ayrshire Manxie record today, 5 loafing about off Dunure this afternoon #UKBirding #BirdingScotland
The greens, golds and terracotta hues of a Jack Snipe, picked up with thermal imaging and left undisturbed at Doonfoot Lagoon #ukbirding
This White-billed Diver flew south past my Dunure lookout this morning, possibly the same bird i last saw on 26th April returning? #ukbirding #BirdingScotland
