A crazy place to build a nest

Oystercatchers choose some crazy places to build their nests! The car park at Cruden Church is surely one of the craziest. I was up at the church this afternoon to take some photographs and as I got out of the car I saw her sitting there up against one of the white fence poles. She had had a quiet time today because the congregation had been sharing in worship with St James’ Church up the hill and there had been no service at Cruden, and so no cars. She is in for a shock next week. I do hope there are not too many funerals bringing lots of cars during the week. I plan to keep an eye out for her and see if she is able to hatch her two eggs.
