Oystercatchers
Oystercatchers
our distinctive visitors have arrived for 2019
Most Oystercatchers stay by the coast but the fields around Trochry have recently been home to several of these easily recognised black & white birds with bright orange bills and distinctive call for many years.
You'll be rewarded with a glimpse of them if you walk the lanes. One guest down on the riverbank came much closer by accident, seeing a nest camouflaged in the stones - which he wisely left very quickly after taking a very quick photo to share.
