Cormorants, I think.


Hi Kai,

Today I was near the cliffs in Portknockie and I saw lots of black seabirds nesting there. I think they were cormorants but I wasn't too sure. This is a picture of cormorants though. There are lots of types of birds that live near me, but I had never seen any cormorants in the garden. They aren't like gulls that I see everywhere. There is also a little black and white bird I like, its called a wagtail. It's called that because it often stands and wags its tail up and down, but it's not a seabird it lives everywhere not just at the coast.

Lots of love Dad.

Findochty


Hi Kai,

Today I went to Findochty. I walked there from my home which is about 3 miles away. Its a small village but has a nice harbour with lots of boats. There must have been nearly 70 boats there. Can you count to seventy? Grandma works for the lifeboats, they help people at sea. Your Great Grandad loves boats, I think he must know everything about them!

Lots of Love, Dad.
