If you've been to St Abb's Head in the last couple of days you might have noticed a lot of people with binoculars hanging around the all ability path.  They've been coming to see the very attractive Woodchat Shrike which has appeared just off the reserve.  Normally breeding in Southern Europe this bird is a rare sight in these parts.  It was still around this morning, if you want to try and spot it before it disappears, then have a look around the area of felled trees on the way to the Starney viewpoint, and along the wall behind the felled area and the horse field.  Lizy.
