point of ayr marsh and from the hide(only me in it blissfull birding) ,i didn,t try to count them but more curlew and shelduck than one place needs a little egret,oystercatchers loads of wagtails,skylarks,meadow pipet,stonechat the list goes on but you already know the rest.after high tide 12.00 went back to presthaven sands,whilst looking for little terns found +100 sandwich terns(had to get me collins out and distant views)eventually found little tern colony after good long walk. all in all a rather spiffing birding day when i,d promised not to.but she ssussed me puting the gear in amongst the bats and balls etc.,nearly lost the car in the quagmire of a car park so don,t go across sand and shingle when its bucketing down
