Saturday 11th January

In flat calm conditions most of the interest was offshore feeding in the bay. The highlight, although very distant, was a Red-necked Grebe, although two Shoveler offshore were another first for the year. Also present six Velvet Scoter, two Eider, six Red-throated and two Great Northern Diver. Elsewhere the Bonaparte's Gull was still present with two Cirl Bunting again showing up in Greenland Lake.
