Bird News Tuesday 3rd April

The Green-winged Teal was still at Ballycarry (Gerard McGeehan / Shirley Dunlop)

Lough Beg this afternoon a Gannet was resting in the southwest corner at 4pm (see attached shot) - very unusual at this location, presumably it took a wrong-turn at the Bar Mouth! It appeared to have gone by 6pm. Also, the three over-wintering Little Stints were seen again, two Sand Martins were over the Beg and a Chiffchaff was at Mullagh. (David Steele)

A Wheatear was at Portmuck (Gerard McGeehan / Shirley Dunlop)

Our thanks to David Stirling who provided the photo of the Green-winged Teal at Ballycarry. Gannet photo from David Steele.
