All shook up............

Med Gull and 786 Common Scoter and a good selection of waders passed Whitburn Obs by 07.45 this morning
A change in the weather with stronger winds was just what we needed to shake things up and it proved to be an excellent and exciting watch, Stoney was in the house to share the experience
