I didn't expect to see a White-crowned Sparrow at Girdle Ness today, but here we are. Found by Raymond Duncan at Torry Battery at 9am but only IDed later. I refound it by the allotments just after 3pm. Something like the 12th British record?

It's a bit late in spring for Whimbrel to be passing through Girdle Ness, but this one has been wandering around the golf course for the past couple of days.

Swifts pulled the warmth with them to Aberdeen today, quickening spring.

At around this time of year, we sometimes get visited by the south Aberdeen pair of Ravens. This morning, their talkative calls drew my attention as they glided over Tullos Hill.
