East Coast Magic

With high pressure over Scandinavia and a forecast of easterlies I travelled through to the east coast on Monday and Wednesday. In retrospect, Tuesday and Thursday could have proved to have been better!

On Monday, I travelled by bus from Edinburgh to Thorntonloch/Torness where I spent a few hours hoping for some 'rarities'. Similarly, on Wednesday a bus to Thortonloch/Torness before walking the John Muir Link to Skateraw, Barns Ness, Whitesands Bay and Fluke Dub before reaching Dunbar and a bus back to Edinburgh.

A few record shots and some reasonable images:
