Watch out for baby Oystercatchers

That area between the two ends of the north track off Reay Mackay Grove, where all the new dunes are growing, is a very special spot. Pied stilts recently produced 3 chicks there. At the moment 3 pairs of Oystercatchers are nesting, with one chick evident so far!

Update, 11 January 2023: this photo’s not quite in focus, but clearly shows there are 2 chicks now.
