Mongolian Ground-Jay - Mongolia 14th May 2023

02 September, 2014

Bright to start but then mist and low cloud came in so not much movement along the coast noted. At 10.45 on way back over footbridge every single gull on the beach and up the river took to the air. Hundreds of birds; suggests to me that there must have been a raptor around but could not see one.
