10 Mar 20: Waterloo bird-spotting - March nature walk

Five hardy souls met up at Broadford car park and set off to walk down Waterloo looking for bird life.


We almost immediately spotted a Common Gull, a pair of Greylag Geese and a Mallard.


Further along there were 2 Curlews, several (Rock?) Pigeons, a pair of Oystercatchers, more Gulls and the ubiquitous Hooded Crows.


Reaching the end of the road we went through the gate and started along the track. However, a rather nasty squall came through and we reluctantly?? turned back. The squall passed and, not far from the gate, we found a bench where we stopped for lunch. After that we returned along the road to the cars and the sun came out.

 After the walk we retired to Cafe Sia for delicious coffees and a chat.   It turned out to be not a bad walk in good company.
