(Re-entered as NK14SW 8080 at cited location NK c. 13 41 [N57 28 W1 47]). The location assigned to this record is essentially tentative. Notwithstanding the above, a location near Boddam, Aberdeenshire, is preferred, There are no high cliffs near Buddon Ness, or elsewhere around the Outer Tay Estuary.
