3rd Lothian Record of Greater Sand Plover, this bird had relocated from the Ythan Estuary (Aberdeen) on the 19th Sep, having been found there on the 12th. The bird ( a 1st-winter) was not seen first thing on the 20th so many of those who had twitched it had left before it was re-found and present for a few hours before being spooked by a Heron mid/late afternoon and it flew off never to be seen again... to the dissappointment of many.
The other Lothian records of Greater Sand Plover are - 1st-summer male at Aberlady in June 1982 & an adult male at Tyninghame / Belhaven Bay in June 1999.
