Went with H.H and G.G to ballycotton for an evenings birding.
Started out at pilmore strand with little here save for 2 med gulls and good numbers of whimbrel. 10 juv grey plover were also here and a few dunlin.
Ballycotton had very good numbers of dunlin, up to 250.with small numbers of sanderling and one adult summer knot.A juvenile med gull and good numbers of whimbrel also here. No spoonbilled sandpiper unfortunately!
A long eared owl was a nice year and cork tick on the way home near bally maloe house!and salvaged the trip dramatically!
