Ness Point Black Redstarts

On Sunday 18th October, late afternoon, a walk around Ness Point at very low tide revealed at 4.20pm, 3 Black Redstarts in the SLP yard opposite the Orbis Energy building. The resplendant male singing from the very top of the builsing joined by one female then another female when it flew down to the ground. I also heard a Rock Pipit too. By the fence a group of 8 Linnets fed with 7 Goldfinches and the Linnets were later seen feeding in the SLP dock complex. By Birds Eye a roost of around 20 House Sparrows and 2 calling Dunnocks calling to each other. 1 Dunnock also seen under the Tamarisk bushes along the northern edge of Birds Eye car park.
