Storspov - Numenius arquata - Eurasian Curlew

NF Photo 120625, Skottland - Scotland, Lammermuir Hills

I am used to find Curlews at teh beaches. But this one lived in the low mountains in Scotland. It seemed to have a nest to protect. It did not really like us to be in the area.

Early morning and a gull seems to wonder where the ocean is

Storspov - Eurasian Curlew against a still grey sky.

Finally, in the afternoon the sun came out, and most geeze is on the ground.
There was thousands of Barnacle Goose (vitkindad gås) and one Brent Goose (prutgås), in the middle of the shot.
