		Up to the end of the 17th century there was no loch there but only a widening of the mouth of the river Rattray or Strathbeg water.
		Between 1700 and 1720 it would appear that the outlet began to be choked with sand, and somewhere about the latter year a great sand storm occurred which completely choked up the channel, enclosing in the harbour of the burgh of Rattray a small vessel laden with slates.

		The Loch of Strathbeg is an RSPB reserve situated halfway between Peterhead and Fraserburgh and is an important site for wintering wildfowl, principally greylags and pink footed geese and well worth a visit.
		At least we found the teal and Lee got the green wing but none of the rest of us was able to pick it out in the gloom. All in all it was a disappointing end to what overall had been a successful and enjoyable weekend.
		From here we drove through Stranraer to the southern end of the loch and scanned the ‘bottom’ end of it from the A77 at O.S. Very worthwhile too, a flock of 30 Scaup were feeding not too far out to sea affording good views.
