PITFOUR LAKE ~ MINTLAW
 |
| Pitfour Lake, Mintlaw Aberdeenshire ~ NJ 9751 2885 |
This was my first visit to Pitfour Lake, primarily for a Greater Scaup which has been on-site for several days now.
 |
| 1st-Winter Greater Scaup |
Although this is not a designated birding site it was a pleasant lakeside walk in open countryside and your visit can also be linked with a walk through Aden Country Park. I managed to locate the bird at the top end of the lake near the fishing pontoons.

| One of three Goldeneye on the lake today. |
During my short visit three Goldeneye, 2 Crossbill in the conifers, three Little Grebe and seven Goosander were also noted.
