We live in #Angus, #Scotland near the #DightyBurn on the eastern edge of #Dundee. It’s been very deep and flooded the last few days due to #StormBabet. I was worried about dipper birds my husband sees every week there. Fortunately he saw loads today. Here is a #video of one fishing beside a very fast whooshing river. https://youtu.be/gAyITN4zwoE #Babet #storms #Monifieth #BroughtyFerry #Birds #Birding #Birdstodon #Dippers #DipperBirds #Photography #Countryside #Floods #Wildlife #Rivers #Dighty

“The storm was really giving it everything it had. This was its big chance. It had spent years hanging around the provinces….Now an opening in the weather had given it an opportunity to strut its hour, and it was building up its role in the hope of being spotted by one of the big climates.”
Terry Pratchett; Wyrd Sisters
