Sunday 7th December

Activity offshore increased with 23+ Red-throated and a Great Northern Diver present whilst at least 50+ Kittiwake and 40+ Gannet headed south. Much larger numbers were however out on the horizon in a large feeding flock mid afternoon. Also offshore the Long-tailed Duck and Slavonian Grebe were visible from John's Watch. Counts from the hide included 157 Bar-tailed and 15 Black-tailed Godwit, 156 Grey Plover, 41 Knot, 28 Ringed Plover and 25 Sanderling; with the Water Pipit again close in front. Elsewhere two Blackcap in the Entrance Bushes were unseasonal for the Warren at least and the Hoopoe remained on private land off site.
