Our first decent day of the week, so despite not feeling that fit we braved the high ground on the Perthshire & Angus border with three friends to look for some mountain birds. As we ascended there were Wheatears, Meadow Pipits, Ravens and Red Grouse as well as plenty Mountain Hares now in their summer brown coats.
Up on the high top it was pretty windy, but our quarry was tracked down - Dotterel - a trip of 3 and a pair busy feeding. We also saw Golden Plovers and Dunlin up there, but no sign of Ptarmigan. A very satisfying trip.
